5.0 quake 14 Mar 4:24 pm (GMT +3:30)

Iran was shaken near Bandar Abbas, Hormozgan, by an earthquake of magnitude 5.0 only 12 minutes ago, the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) reported.
The quake hit at a shallow depth of 10 km beneath the epicenter near Bandar Abbas, Hormozgan, Iran, early afternoon on Sunday 14 March 2021 at 3:54 pm local time. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) which listed the quake at magnitude 5.2.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Mīnāb (pop. 70,800) located 112 km from the epicenter, and Bandar Abbas (pop. 352,200) 123 km away.
