Abstract	Iran experienced 2 strong earthquakes in April and May 2013, in the Makran ranges within 25 days of each other. The first earthquake occurred on 16 April 2013, with a magnitude of Mw7.8 in the Saravan region in the eastern end of Iranian Makran, and the second happened in western Makran, on 11 May 2013, with a magnitude of Mw6.2 in the Irar, Bashagard region, close to the Minab-Zendan Fault zone. This report tries to summarize the reconnaissance reports and early seismological and earthquake engineering evaluations on these two strong earthquakes.
