Magnitude 4.3 Earthquake Strikes Tibet, Follows Earlier Tremor

An earthquake measuring 4.3 on the Richter scale struck Tibet on January 14, 2026, at a depth of 90 kilometers, according to the National Center for Seismology (NCS). This follows a smaller 3.8 magnitude earthquake in the region the previous day. The Tibetan Plateau is known for seismic activity due to its location on a major geological fault line where the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates collide.
