Taiwan has experienced a significant seismic event with over 200 aftershocks following a major earthquake. The most intense aftershocks reached a magnitude of 6.3, primarily affecting Hualien County in Eastern Taiwan. Despite the severity and frequency of the quakes, including at least 25 M5+ earthquakes, reports indicate only minor damage and no casualties. Major chipmaker TSMC noted no impact on operations, although precautionary evacuations of cleanroom staff were carried out. The aftershocks are part of a series following a deadly 7.3 magnitude quake three weeks prior, which resulted in 17 fatalities.
