TAIPEI, May 22 (Xinhua) — A magnitude 5.2 earthquake struck off the eastern coast of Taiwan at 4 p.m. today, with its epicenter located in the eastern waters of the island, according to the Taiwan authorities’ meteorological department. The depth of the quake was approximately 22.1 kilometers.
The earthquake was felt significantly not only in the eastern part of Taiwan but also across 16 counties and cities on the island, with reports of varying degrees of sensation.
Following the quake, Taiwan’s regional leader immediately issued instructions to the relevant departments to swiftly activate emergency response mechanisms to ensure the safety of the people’s lives and property. The Taiwan authorities’ disaster prevention and rescue department has issued a warning, urging the public to take safety precautions and suggesting that during an earthquake, people should seek safe locations nearby, remain calm, and avoid panic.
The specific impact of the earthquake is still being further assessed, and so far, there have been no reports of casualties or significant property damage. The Taiwan meteorological department stated that due to the shallow depth of the source, the earthquake may cause local ground displacement and there may be aftershocks in the future, reminding the public to remain vigilant.
Taiwan is located in the Circum-Pacific seismic belt, where seismic activities are frequent. Authorities remind the public to enhance their awareness of earthquakes and understand the emergency measures during an earthquake, to be prepared for any emergency. At the same time, they call on the public to pay attention to the latest earthquake information released by official channels and to obtain correct guidance on how to avoid the quake in a timely manner.
Currently, Taiwan’s relevant rescue teams are in a state of readiness and will immediately participate in rescue efforts if needed. The earthquake once again reminds Taiwanese people to strengthen their awareness of earthquake prevention and to be prepared for various natural disasters.
