In Malaysia, a magnitude 4.0–4.1 tremor was detected in Johor state, shaking residents across multiple districts. No damage was reported, but it serves as a reminder of regional seismic vulnerability (Business Today Malaysia).
Seismic activity in Texas and nearby New Mexico has largely calmed down.
