Given the location of this earthquake to villages in this area, I am expecting some damage to be reported. How much and how excessive is hard to know at current time. This earthquake was also not far from the border with Mongolia. But I have not seen any reports of how it was felt there, or if there was any damage in that area following this earthquake.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/icelandgeology.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/IntensityMap.26.02.2012.12.54.utc_.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/icelandgeology.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/IntensityMap.26.02.2012.12.54.utc_.png\" alt=\"\" title=\"IntensityMap.26.02.2012.12.54.utc\" width=\"548\" height=\"405\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2268\" srcset=\"https:\/\/icelandgeology.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/IntensityMap.26.02.2012.12.54.utc_.png 548w, https:\/\/icelandgeology.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/IntensityMap.26.02.2012.12.54.utc_-300x221.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 548px) 100vw, 548px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThe intensity map of the earthquake according to EMSC data. <em>Copyright of this picture belongs to EMSC.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/icelandgeology.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/256522.regional.26.02.2012.12.54.utc_.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/icelandgeology.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/256522.regional.26.02.2012.12.54.utc_.jpeg\" alt=\"\" title=\"256522.regional.26.02.2012.12.54.utc\" width=\"915\" height=\"846\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/icelandgeology.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/256522.regional.26.02.2012.12.54.utc_.jpeg 915w, https:\/\/icelandgeology.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/256522.regional.26.02.2012.12.54.utc_-300x277.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThe regional view of this earthquake.
