What on earth

Iran earthquake

As I stated yesterday earthquakes are most frequent along plate boundaries. The earthquakes in Iran yesterday 27 November 2005 also occurred near a plate boundary. The epicentres were near the boundary where the Arabian plate is colliding with the Iranian plate.

The Bam earthquake in December 2003 also occurred near this boundary.
