On 17 June 2024, at 02:47:21 PKT (21:47 UTC on 16 June), an earthquake of {{M|ww}} 7.9 struck northern and eastern Pakistan. The epicenter was {{Cvt|13|km|mi}} northwest of [[Mahni]], in [[Bhakkar District]].<ref>Ref</ref> It had a maximum [[Modified Mercalli intensity]] of VIII (''Severe'').<ref>Ref</ref>
 
The {{M|ww|link=y}} 7.9 earthquake is the largest in Pakistan since the [[1945 Balochistan earthquake]], and the third-largest in the country.<ref>Ref</ref> It is also one of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded in [[South Asia]].<ref>Ref</ref> It was felt as far as [[Russia]] and [[Yemen]].<ref>Ref</ref>
==Tectonic setting==
The primary tectonic feature of the {{convert|1200|km|abbr=on}} island chain is the New Hebrides Subduction Zone, the [[Convergent boundary|convergent]] boundary of the Indo-Australian and [[Pacific Plate]]s. Along the [[Wadati–Benioff zone]], earthquake activity has been observed as shallow, intermediate, and [[Deep-focus earthquake|deep-focus]] events at depths of up to {{convert|700|km|abbr=on}}. Volcanic activity is also present along this north-northwest trending and northeast-[[Strike and dip|dipping]] [[oceanic trench]].<ref>Ref</ref>
 
While much of the [[island arc]] experiences intermediate-depth earthquakes along a Wadati–Benioff zone that dips steeply at 70°, the area adjacent to the [[d'Entrecasteaux Ridge]] does not. There is a corresponding gap in seismicity that occurs below {{convert|50|km|abbr=on}} where it intrudes into the subduction zone from the west. According to the NUVEL-1 global relative plate motion model, convergence is occurring at roughly {{convert|8|cm|abbr=on}} per year. The uncertainty, which also affects the Tonga arc, is due to the influence of [[Divergent boundary|spreading]] at the [[North Fiji Basin]].<ref>Ref</ref>
==Earthquake==
The [[United States Geological Survey]] measured the earthquake at moment magnitude 7.9 ({{M|ww|link=y}}). The epicenter was located in [[Bhakkar District]], in a fairly remote area of Punjab Province.<ref>Ref</ref> The shock had a focal mechanism corresponding to shallow strike-slip faulting.<ref>Ref</ref> Rupturing occurred on either a northeast–southwest striking, northwest dipping or northeast–southwest striking, northeast dipping fault.<ref>Ref</ref> The USGS estimated a rupture dimension of 202 km long and 14 km wide, with a maximum slip of {{cvt|10.1|m|ft}}.<ref>Ref</ref>
