Nepal’s Seismological Center: Four powerful quakes hit western region.
A home fell in the town of Chainpur in Nepal, injuring one person. One student was harmed in the Achham neighborhood. A media report stated that the injured party had reportedly jumped from a two-story building out of fear. At least five new patients have been admitted to the District Hospital Bajhang since the earthquake.
Numerous Bajhang residences reportedly developed cracks, and one district police office building sustained damage, according to the local administration office. Although there were significant earthquakes in the neighboring country of India, there were no initial reports of property damage.
