<p>As per ANI, tremors were experienced in several parts of the region, with no immediate reports of injuries or property damage. Further information is awaited.</p>
<p>Shallow earthquakes are more dangerous than deeper ones due to their greater energy release closer to the Earth's surface. This causes stronger ground shaking and increased damage to structures and casualties, compared to deeper earthquakes, which lose energy as they travel to the surface.</p>
