The Granada region in Spain recorded 1,279 earthquakes in the last two weeks, revealing an intense seismic activity that has kept the population on alert. This number represents a significant increase in tectonic activity in the Vega de Granada area.

The municipal councils of the Vega de Granada responded to the situation by strengthening technical inspections of buildings and infrastructure in the region. The objective of these assessments is to identify and catalog the damage caused by the earthquakes that have been felt in recent days.

In addition to the inspections, the local authorities approved bonuses and financial aid for citizens affected by this seismic crisis. These measures aim to provide immediate support to families and businesses that suffered losses while waiting for the promised aid from the central Government or the province of Granada.
