A 4.9 magnitude earthquake was recorded early this morning near the city of Asaluyeh in Iran’s Bushehr province, citing the “Ozod Eron” Telegram channel. The earthquake’s epicenter was located 21 kilometers beneath the earth’s surface.
The tremor was felt in surrounding areas, prompting concern among local residents. Some people evacuated their homes out of fear, though as of now, no casualties or major damage have been officially reported.
Local authorities have launched an immediate investigation to assess the aftermath. Emergency response teams have been dispatched to the affected zone to examine possible damage and ensure public safety.
Iran is situated in a seismically active region, and such earthquakes are relatively common. In past decades, some quakes have led to devastating consequences. Thus, even in the absence of fatalities, this event is being closely monitored by officials.
Residents are advised to stay alert and follow safety instructions as authorities continue to evaluate the situation and share updates.
