A moderate earthquake rattled Dhaka and several other parts of the country in the early hours of Wednesday, causing momentary panic but no reported casualties.
According to the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), the tremor struck at 2:24am and measured 5.2 on the Richter scale. The epicentre was located near Moirang in Manipur, India—approximately 39 kilometres from the state capital, Imphal.
The earthquake originated at a shallow depth of 47 kilometres, which amplified its effects across a wide region, including northeastern parts of Bangladesh and the capital, Dhaka.
The United States Geological Survey (USGS) also recorded the event, placing the epicentre at 24.49°N latitude.
Residents in Dhaka, Sylhet, and surrounding districts reported light shaking, but there have been no immediate reports of damage or injuries.
