It is commonly measured on the so-called Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale (MMI) ranging from 1 (not felt) to 10 (extreme shaking), and given in Roman numerals as I,II,...IX, X, and often displayed with color codes ranging from light blue to dark red.Earthquake intensity depends mainly on the magnitude and depth of the quake as well as the distance from the epicenter: The further away, the less shaking intensity occurs.Read more about the MMI scale!Number of reports by intensityShaking intensityNumber of reportsMin-Max distance from epicenter (*)Average distance (*)II: Very weak shaking1534–534 km (332–332 mi)534 km (332 mi)Notes(*) Reports are filtered to exclude those that are likely highly inaccurate or esaggerated.Only reports with latitude/longitude coordinate positions given (1 in total) could be used for geographic statistics.Get the Android appI didn't feel itI felt this quakeIf you were near the epicenter and felt it, please share your experience and submit a short "I felt it" report!

When aftershocks are detected, we will update this section.What are aftershocks?Larger earthquakes (above magnitude 5 or so) such as this one are usually followed by smaller ones known as aftershocks that occur in the same area during the days, weeks, months or even years after the main shock.[More info]What about this quake?Based on its magnitude, the fault that was active during the quake likely ruptured beneath a surface area of approximately 16 km2 (6 square miles) as a first-order estimate. The length of the rupture zone thus was probably around 7 km (4 mi).[More info]Recorded aftershocks, latest first (0 quake)Mar 7, 2026 06:24 pm (Universal Time)8 minutes ago5.2212 km0 km - This quake72 km SW of Fayzabad, Badakhshan, AfghanistanMain Shock (this quake)MoreMap of aftershocksPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquake8 minutes ago reported feltMar 7, 2026 18:24 GMT / Mar 7, 2026 06:24 pm (Universal Time)Lat / Lng: 36.5472 / 70.1862: Hindu Kush Region, AfghanistanSource: EMSCOther sources: GFZ: 5.2 / 206 km, RENASS: 5.3 / 186 km, 1 more...Detail info | Read user reports | You felt it? - Report it!',5.2,52, '#bb202a', 0.9,1.5, '#bb202a', 0.27);map2.addToMap('thisQuake',36.5472,70.1862,'8 minutes ago: Mag. 5.2, Hindu Kush Region, Afghanistan','Earthquake: Mag 5.2 / 212 km (132 mi) depth8 minutes ago reported feltMar 7, 2026 18:24 GMT / Mar 7, 2026 06:24 pm (Universal Time)Lat / Lng: 36.5472 / 70.1862: Hindu Kush Region, AfghanistanSource: EMSCOther sources: GFZ: 5.2 / 206 km, RENASS: 5.3 / 186 km, 1 more...Detail info | Read user reports | You felt it? - Report it!','default'); // this will be local to this table obj function putQuakeOnMap(id,lat,lon,time,title,html,mag,zIndex) { qTableOlder.putQuakeOnMap(id,lat,lon,time,title,html,mag,zIndex); } map2.circleScale=0.5;qTableOlder.usePalette=1;qTableOlder.startVal=qTableOlder.referenceTime-(80*365.25*86400);qTableOlder.endVal=qTableOlder.referenceTime; qTableOlder.assignMap(map2); (async function(){await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r,4000));map2.map.setZoom(7)})(); })(); (async function(){while(typeof mkRequest=="undefined")await new Promise(r=>setTimeout(r,500));mkRequest("https://server2.allquakes.com/api/getPrevious.php?quakeId=22783506","get","",function(httpObj){let r=httpObj.responseText,d=document;if(""!=r&&200==httpObj.status){let o=JSON.parse(r);if(!o){d.getElementById("olderQuakesSection").remove();return};let table=d.getElementById("qTableOlder");table.innerHTML+=o.tableRows,qTableOlder.alternateBg(),d.getElementById("placeholder_largestQText").innerHTML=o.html,d.getElementById("sectionPreviousCWrap").style.display="",eval(o.js)}})})();]]>
