Earthquake of magnitude 4.3 jolts Afghanistan
Afghanistan has experienced a series of earthquakes in late May 2025, as reported by the National Center for Seismology. The quakes, ranging in magnitude from 4.1 to 4.5, struck at varying depths. Situated on active fault lines, Afghanistan is highly vulnerable to seismic activity, exacerbating challenges for communities already struggling with conflict and underdevelopment.
