The beautiful Chaporsan Valley in Hunza district of Gilgit-Baltistan, which consists of twelve villages and a population of about four thousand, has been in a state of fear and panic since July last year. According to residents, they sleep with their shoes and full clothes on at night and do not lock the doors of their homes, because they are constantly afraid that they may have to run for their lives at any moment. Pakistani government agencies agree that “these explosions and earthquakes are the result of the activity of underground fault lines.” According to Naveed Munawar, deputy director of the Geological Survey of Pakistan, residents of Chaporsan experienced mysterious explosive sounds and ground tremors between August and October 2025, which were mostly heard at night. Ajaz Karim, Head of Emergency at the Aga Khan Development Network, said, "There are many areas in the world that are located on fault lines or where small and large earthquakes occur, but despite this, there is a human population there." According to him, in such places, only people from the danger zone are evacuated, while residents of nearby areas are instructed to take precautionary measures.
