On June 1, 2025 at 17:09 UTC, a magnitude 4.1 shallow crustal earthquake struck 35 km SE of Rasht, Tajikistan, at a depth of 10.0 km and coordinates 38.8235°, 70.6829°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 4.1 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 21 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 406 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
