Iran earthquakes continue to affect many regions, showing the country’s high seismic activity. In one week, seismologists recorded a total of 122 earthquakes. Most quakes remained small, but a few reached noticeable strength. Out of 122 earthquakes, 108 measured less than 3 on the Richter scale. Thirteen earthquakes had magnitudes between 3 and 4. One earthquake reached between 4 and 5, measuring 4.1 in Hormozgan province.
Kerman province felt the most earthquakes, with 16 recorded. Yazd followed with 15 quakes, while Khorasan Razavi and Isfahan each experienced nine. Tehran province recorded minor tremors. Ardabil, Alborz, Zanjan, Sistan-Baluchestan, Qom, Qazvin, Kordestan, and Kohgiluyeh-Boyerahmad did not experience any earthquakes. Over the past year, Iran earthquakes totaled 6,272 across the country. Scientists reported that 150 of these quakes measured more than 4 on the Richter scale. At least five earthquakes above 4.5 occurred each month, showing the country’s continuous seismic risk.
The Iranian plateau lies in one of the world’s most seismically active regions. The country faces not only major earthquakes but also other hazards linked to seismic activity. Iran experiences about two percent of earthquakes worldwide, but the country accounted for over six percent of earthquake-related deaths in the 20th century. Experts warn residents to prepare for more Iran earthquakes. Authorities monitor seismic activity and advise communities in high-risk provinces to follow safety guidelines.
Families should plan emergency measures and remain alert during tremors. The recent cluster of quakes emphasizes the importance of understanding seismic patterns. Residents and officials must stay cautious. Iran earthquakes remain a serious natural threat. Continued monitoring, public awareness, and emergency planning can reduce risks and protect lives.
