Original Note:
An earthquake did occur in Iran, but currently no evidence suggests nuclear tests have anything to do with it. Iran doesn’t have nuclear weapons to start with. Also the method of measuring earthquakes is the Richter scale, which isn’t measured in percentage. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us6000nwr9/executive https://www.economist.com/briefing/2024/09/30/iran-could-race-for-the-bomb-after-the-decapitation-of-hizbullah https://www.britannica.com/science/Richter-scale#:~:text=Richter%20scale%20(ML)%2C,a%20scale%20by%20a%20seismograph.
