China quake leaves dozens dead and injured
Chinese media reported the recording of a 7.1 magnitude earthquake in the Tibet Autonomous Region in southwestern China, which resulted in 16 deaths and 32 injuries. The European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre confirmed the occurrence of the same quake, part of the ongoing seismic activity in the area due to its location at the intersection of the Indian and Eurasian plates. The collision between these plates has led to the formation of the Himalayan Mountains and the uplift of the Tibetan Plateau. The region had previously experienced an earthquake in 2025 with a magnitude of 6.8, which caused 53 fatalities.
