Seismic activity in the Caspian Sea region has shown a notable increase in recent weeks. According to data from the Republican Seismic Survey Center, a total of 18 earthquakes were recorded in the Caspian basin during the month of April. Azerbaijan is situated in a seismically active zone, and the Caspian Sea frequently experiences low to moderate intensity tremors due to its complex tectonic structure. Experts monitor these events continuously to ensure public safety and infrastructure integrity in the coastal regions and offshore installations.
