Seismic Activity Reported Across Morocco
On July 14, 2026, the National Institute of Geophysics in Morocco confirmed the occurrence of five to six minor earthquakes in various regions, particularly noted around Jebha and Chefchaouen. This announcement came in response to social media reports detailing the slight tremors felt throughout the morning. Nasser Jebbour, the institute's director, stated that the magnitudes of these seismic events did not exceed 3.0 on the Richter scale, indicating their low intensity.
Jebbour also mentioned that no reports or calls had been received from local authorities or residents concerning these tremors, further affirming their insignificance and imperceptibility to the general population. The tremors were detected both offshore and on land, and were characterized as part of normal seismic activity, devoid of alarming characteristics. Such minor earthquakes are common in the region and typically do not pose a threat to safety.
