A magnitude 4.5 earthquake was felt across Eilat and the Arava region on Wednesday, causing temporary panic and disruptions. Residents and travelers in Eilat described moments of alarm as the ground shook. At Ramon Airport, the earthquake caused a temporary halt in operations as authorities conducted safety checks on infrastructure. Shirley Pahima, who was at the airport, recounted seeing the floor move and water bottles sloshing, prompting people to evacuate to an open area. An Eilat resident also described feeling his bed shake shortly after going to sleep, realizing it was an earthquake due to past experience. The earthquake, which occurred at 11:24 AM approximately 30 kilometers south of Eilat, triggered alerts in Eilat and several Arava communities, including Beer Ora, Elifaz, and Eilot. While no injuries were reported, shoppers were evacuated from a mall in Eilat. The Home Front Command advised residents to return to undamaged homes and to follow safety procedures in case of aftershocks. This event follows a similar, weaker earthquake of magnitude 3.4 felt in the Arava region about three weeks prior, which did not trigger a Home Front Command alert.
