June 27 magnitude 6.2 earthquake felt across northern India

On June 27, a powerful magnitude 6.2 earthquake originated in Afghanistan and was felt across a wide swath of the Indian subcontinent. Residents of Delhi, Jammu & Kashmir, and several northern states reported strong shaking as the tremor propagated across the border.

The National Centre for Seismology in India logged the event at 19:04 local time, confirming the depth and magnitude reported by international agencies. While no major structural damage was reported in India, the quake served as a reminder of the transboundary nature of seismic hazards in the region.
