Dhaka experienced another earthquake on Saturday evening at 6:06 PM, marking the third tremor in 36 hours. The quake measured 4.3 on the Richter scale. Conflicting reports have emerged regarding its epicenter: the Bangladesh Meteorological Department identified it as being in Dhaka’s Badda area, while the US Geological Survey (USGS) placed it 11 kilometers west of Narsingdi. Both agencies agreed on the magnitude but differed on the origin point, prompting renewed discussion among experts. The USGS also reported the quake’s depth at 10 kilometers below the surface. Earlier, on Friday morning, a stronger 5.7 magnitude quake struck with its epicenter in Madhabdi, Narsingdi, shaking large parts of Bangladesh and India, killing 10 people and injuring over 600. Another 3.3 magnitude tremor followed on Saturday morning in Narsingdi’s Palash upazila, before the latest quake hit Dhaka in the evening.
