Shallow earthquakes are more dangerous than deep people due to their greater energy release to the Earth’s surface, causing increased loss to strong ground shocks and structures and casualties than deep earthquakes, which lose energy because they travel to the surface.
However, the tremor in the installment was of low magnitude.
The installment, and most Kashmir Valley, fall within 5 seismic regions 5, which is considered a very high -risk area. This area is characterized by a high capacity for strong earthquakes. (AI)
