On November 3, 2026 at 17:07 UTC, a magnitude 4.1 shallow crustal earthquake struck 57 km SW of Zahedan, Iran, at a depth of 10.0 km and coordinates 29.1514°, 60.4194°.

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.
