Taiwan anticipates M5 aftershocks post-New Taipei quake
The Taiwanese Central Weather Bureau reported that a 5.6 magnitude earthquake struck northern Taiwan overnight, linked to the subduction of the Philippine Sea Plate. Although its depth of 95 kilometers minimizes its apparent impact, aftershocks reaching up to 5 in magnitude may occur in the coming week. However, they are not expected to be felt significantly by residents. The earthquake prompted emergency alerts and precautionary measures, with forecasts predicting stronger tremors in the upcoming days.
