Deadly Quake Creates New Island

By Gul Yusufzai

QUETTA, Pakistan (Reuters) - A major earthquake hit a remote part of western Pakistan on Tuesday, killing at least 45 people and prompting a new island to rise from the sea just off the country's southern coast.

Tremors were felt as far away as the Indian capital of New Delhi, hundreds of miles to the east, where buildings shook, as well as the sprawling port city of Karachi in Pakistan.

The United States Geological Survey said the 7.8 magnitude quake struck 145 miles southeast of Dalbandin in Pakistan's quake-prone province of Baluchistan, which borders Iran.

Let's hope there isn't another war for control of the new island.

I finally caught a tv-news clip on this new island created by the 7.7 mag
quake in Pakistan this week. Apparently this has happened before preceeding
some volcanic activity back in the mid-1940's. Think it was a CBC news
story and the new island has already been claimed by Pakistan.

 

New island that rose from sea after earthquake 'emits flammable gas'...
