This latest earthquake comes as Tibet grapples with the aftermath of the January 7 disaster, which saw a 7.1-magnitude earthquake devastate Tingri County. The powerful tremor, followed by multiple aftershocks, resulted in the deaths of 126 people, injuries to over 300, and extensive damage to more than 1,000 homes. Over 30,000 residents were evacuated as emergency teams worked around the clock to provide relief and shelter.

The repeated seismic activity has left the region on edge, with rescue teams and disaster relief workers continuing their efforts amid challenging conditions. Experts warn of potential aftershocks, urging residents to remain vigilant.
