A 5.5-magnitude earthquake strikes near Leh in Ladakh, with reports of the shaking being felt in the region. Both outlets describe it as a moderate quake and note that it occurs in the Ladakh area.
According to the reports, there is no information indicating damage or casualties at the time of publication. The Economic Times specifically frames the event as jolting Leh, while Times of India describes it as jolting Ladakh more broadly, but the magnitude and the lack of reported harm are consistent across both accounts.
Neither source provides additional details such as the quake’s exact epicentre, depth, or aftershocks in the information supplied. Both accounts focus on immediate public impact—shaking felt locally—and the early assessment that no damage has been reported so far.
