Sikkim - A 4.3 magnitude earthquake hit Sikkim in the early hours of Monday, according to the National Center for Seismology. The earthquake took place 70 km northwest of Yuksom, at a depth of 10 km and was recorded at 4.15 am. Residents in the affected area were awakened by the earthquake and ran out onto the streets in panic. This recent earthquake in Sikkim, combined with the recent devastating earthquakes in Turkey and Syria, have left many people feeling uneasy. The earthquake in Sikkim came just a day after another earthquake struck Assam, causing even more fear and concern among the public. The memories of the catastrophic earthquakes in Turkey and Syria are still fresh in people's minds, leading to increased anxiety whenever there is any seismic activity.
