Early this morning, multiple earthquakes occurred in Aba Prefecture, Sichuan. According to the China Earthquake Networks Center, at 0:03 on June 10, a 5.8-magnitude earthquake occurred in Maerkang City, Aba Prefecture, Sichuan Province, with a focal depth of 10 kilometers; at 0:28 on June 10, a 6.0-magnitude earthquake occurred in Maerkang City, Aba Prefecture, Sichuan Province, with a focal depth of 13 kilometers. As of 06:00 on June 10, a total of 10 earthquakes of magnitude 3.0 or above occurred, including 9 in Maerkang City and 1 in Hongyuan County, with the largest magnitude being 6.0. The average altitude within 5 kilometers of the epicenter is about 3,691 meters. After the earthquake, the Office of the State Council Earthquake Relief Headquarters and the Ministry of Emergency Management immediately launched the National Earthquake Level 4 Emergency Response. The Ministry of Emergency Management sent a working group to Sichuan overnight to guide and assist local governments in carrying out earthquake relief work. Experts comprehensively analyzed that the 5.8 and 6.0 magnitude earthquakes in Maerkang were swarm earthquakes that occurred inside the Bayan Har block. The preliminary focal mechanism solution showed that both earthquakes were strike-slip ruptures, and the nearest fault was the Songgang Fault, which was about 4 kilometers away. According to the fifth-generation seismic zoning map, the seismic fortification intensity of the earthquake zone is VII (7 degrees). It is unlikely that a larger earthquake will occur in the original earthquake zone in the next few days, and there will be aftershocks in the future. The earthquake department is closely following up and making judgments. The population near the epicenter of the earthquake is not particularly dense, and the epicenter is about 6 kilometers away from the nearest Caodeng Township. The earthquake was felt strongly in Ma'erkang City, the capital of Aba Prefecture, and most local people took shelter outdoors after the earthquake. In addition, according to feedback from netizens, the earthquake was felt significantly in Chengdu, Mianyang, Ya'an, Meishan, and Leshan in Sichuan. When an earthquake occurs suddenly, how should we respond immediately? remind! After an earthquake, what should people in the earthquake-stricken area pay attention to? After a destructive earthquake occurs, people in the earthquake-affected area must pay attention to the following aspects: ① Pay attention to the impact of aftershocks, and pay special attention to the information about aftershocks; ② Be aware of the further damage to buildings caused by aftershocks. Some buildings may not collapse during the main earthquake, but they may collapse after aftershocks. Do not approach or use buildings that have not been safety-certified. ③ Pay attention to hygiene and epidemic prevention; ④ Be careful to guard against earthquake rumors and do not believe in information released through informal channels.
