Arab Weather - Today, global seismic monitoring centers recorded an earthquake measuring 4.1 degrees on the Richter scale in the Negev Desert and the Wadi Araba region within the occupied Palestinian territories.

 

The tremor occurred at 2:08 am on Tuesday/Wednesday, with a depth of 10 km. The residents of the southern regions of Jordan (Karak, Tafileh, Ma'an and Aqaba) felt the tremor that woke them from sleep. There were no reports - praise be to God - of any damages.
