Similarly, an earthquake of magnitude 4.2 jolted Nepal on Sunday (June 29), the National Centre for Seismology (NCS) said in a statement. The earthquake took place at a shallow depth of 10km, making it susceptible to aftershocks.On April 26 this year, a minute of silence was held in remembrance of the 8,969 lives lost during the powerful 7.8-magnitude earthquake that struck on April 25, 2015, nearly a decade ago.On Saturday (July 5), a quake with a magnitude of 5.3 also shook islands in southwestern Japan. According to the Japan Meteorological Agency, the quake struck off the Tokara island chain at 6:29 a.m. at a depth of about 20 kilometres, reported the local media. No tsunami warning was issued.<h3>Nepal is part of subduction zone</h3>Nepal is susceptible to continuous earthquakes as this region lies on the convergent boundary of the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates. The Indian plate is slowly and gradually sliding beneath the Eurasian plate which is known as subduction, creating immense pressure and strain on the crust of the region.The subduction zone intensifies tectonic pressure, placing Nepal at significant risk of earthquakes. This tectonic collision is also responsible for the rise of the Himalayan mountains, contributing to the region’s frequent seismic activity. Nepal has a long record of major earthquakes, including the catastrophic 2015 quake. &nbsp;
