Mufassir08 2,400 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 An Earthquake of magnitude 7.7 struck the Balochistan province of Pakistan.More then 260 people have lost their lives and more than 1000 people are injured or have been left homeless.It was felt as far away as New Delhi but no damage has been reported over there.The Earth moved with enough force to create a small island visible off the south coast after the huge tremor.

English Freak 456 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 That is terrible news.http://www.news.com.au/world-news/asia/over-200-dead-as-77-magnitude-earthquake-hits-southwestern-pakistan/story-fnh81fz8-1226727121081 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ankit 3,176 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Fortunately here the impact was minimal. As far as I know, the epicentre was 10 kms underneath the ground, and still the richer scale recorded a 7.7 magnitude. That is huge and had the epicentre not been so deep the damage would have been immeasurable. There have been 20 something earthquakes around the northern part of India and Pakistan in the past year or so, most of them mild. I just hope there is nothing big coming because something is definitely going wrong underneath. Stay safe Mufassir and thoughts with the people who lost their lives. Nature is scary.
