At the same time, strong tremors of earthquake were felt in New Zealand on Thursday before Saturday. According to reports, a powerful earthquake measuring 7.1 on the Richter scale on Thursday hit the Kermadec Islands, north of New Zealand. A tsunami warning was also issued after Thursday’s earthquake, which was later lifted. Let us tell you that New Zealand is also a sensitive area to earthquakes, because it is located on the border of the world’s two major tectonic plates – the Pacific Plate and the Australian Plate. It is also on the edge of an area of intense seismic activity known as the ‘Ring of Fire’. Thousands of earthquakes occur every year in New Zealand. Therefore, after the earthquake for the second time in a week, people are scared, whether nature is going to wreak havoc in New Zealand too?
