At least nine people including five men, two women and two children were killed in Pakistan. Two persons – a man in Islamabad and a 13-year-old girl in Abbottabad – lost their lives due to sudden cardiac arrest after the quake. A stampede was reported in Rawalpindi during the earthquake.
The earthquake originated at a depth of 180 kilometres which is why the tremors were felt far and wide.
