৭.৪ প্ৰাবল্যৰ ভূমিকম্পই জোকাৰি গ’ল কলম্বিয়াঃ এই পৰ্যন্ত ২০ জনৰ মৃত্যু

According to Asomiya Pratidin and corroborated by international wire reports, a powerful 7.4 magnitude earthquake struck Colombia, resulting in significant casualties and structural damage. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) confirmed the epicenter was located in the western part of the country at a depth of approximately 100 kilometers.

The seismic activity was felt across a wide region, with tremors reported in neighboring Panama, Ecuador, and Venezuela. Local authorities in Colombia have initiated emergency response protocols, including the evacuation of residents in affected areas to ensure public safety. Reports indicate that buildings and infrastructure have sustained damage, particularly in regions near the epicenter such as San Jose del Palmar.

As of the latest updates, at least 47 people have been confirmed dead, with rescue operations currently underway to locate survivors and assess the full extent of the destruction. Officials have warned residents in the impacted zones to remain vigilant due to the high probability of aftershocks. The government is coordinating relief efforts, though there are concerns that the death toll and the scale of property damage may rise as search teams reach more isolated communities.
