Moderate magnitude earthquake 4.7 – 61 km west of Murghab, Tajikistan

4.7 earthquake Sep 7 18:34 (GMT +5)

The German Geoscience Research Center (GFZ) reported a magnitude 4.7 earthquake in Tajikistan near Murghab in Gorno-Badakhshan just 14 minutes ago. The earthquake struck in the early evening on Tuesday, September 7, 2021 at 6:34 p.m. local time at a shallow depth of 10 km. The exact magnitude, epicenter and depth of the quake could be revised in the coming hours or minutes, as seismologists review the data and refine their calculations, or when other agencies release their report.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from the Indian National Seismological Center (NCS) that listed the quake as a magnitude 4.6. A third agency, the Euro-Mediterranean Seismological Center (EMSC), reported the same 4.7 magnitude earthquake.
Based on preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused significant damage, but was likely felt by many as a slight vibration in the epicenter area.
Weak tremors could have been felt in Murghab (10,800 inhabitants) located 61 km from the epicenter.
VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update the magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant earthquake news becomes available. If you are in the region, please share your experience with us through our reporting mechanism, online or through our mobile app. This will help us provide more first-hand updates to anyone in the world who is interested in learning more about this earthquake.

If you were or still are in this area during the earthquake help others with your comments and report it here.

If you felt this tremor (or if you were near the epicenter), share your experience and submit a short “I felt it” report! Other users would love to hear about it!
If you did NOT feel the earthquake although you are in the area, please report it! Your contribution is valuable to earthquake science, seismic risk analysis and mitigation efforts. You can use your device’s location or the map to show where you were during the earthquake. Thank you!

Data for the same earthquake reported by different agencies

Info: The more agencies report the same earthquake and publish similar data, the more confidence you can have in the data. It normally takes up to a few hours for the seismic parameters to be calculated with near optimum accuracy.
