5.5-magnitude earthquake detected in western Iran by UAE’s NCM

The UAE’s National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) has reported a 5.5-magnitude earthquake that struck western Iran, highlighting the region’s seismic activity. The earthquake, which occurred early in the morning, was closely monitored by the NCM’s advanced seismic network. While the tremor originated in Iran, it was not felt in the UAE. The event underscores the significance of accurate and timely monitoring by organizations such as the NCM in ensuring public safety and preparedness. Details of the 5.5-magnitude Earthquake The earthquake was detected in western Iran at approximately [specific time if available]. According to the NCM, the tremor occurred at a depth of 10 kilometers, a factor that often determines how far the seismic waves travel and how strongly they are felt on the surface. The epicenter of the earthquake, as reported by the NCM’s seismic monitoring systems, was located in a region known for its tectonic activity. Such earthquakes are not uncommon in Iran, given its position on the boundary of the Eurasian and Arabian tectonic plates. No
