A 4.3 magnitude earthquake occurred at a depth of 10 kilometers in the Jirash region of southern Fars province in Iran. Following the tremor, some Western and Israeli defense experts expressed concerns that the incident could be a possible nuclear test conducted by Iran.
OCCURRED AT A DEPTH OF 10 KILOMETERS
According to data shared by officials, the earthquake occurred approximately 10 kilometers below the surface. There has been no official statement regarding casualties or property damage from the region so far.
"NUCLEAR TEST" CLAIM
Some Western and Israeli defense experts highlighted the characteristics of the earthquake, suggesting that it could be caused by an underground explosion rather than a natural tremor. However, evaluations in this direction are currently based on technical analyses.
NO OFFICIAL CONFIRMATION
While Iranian authorities state that the earthquake is a natural tremor, there is no official confirmation regarding the nuclear test claims. A clearer picture is expected to emerge after a detailed examination of international observation and seismic data.
