Earthquakes pose a significant threat to the population, causing harm to individuals and also impacting modern infrastructure. Prediction of earthquakes as a subfield of seismology aims to address questions and problems related to forecasting of earthquakes. An area of research that could contribute to this matter is the field of space weather specifically related to the impact of the sun on Earth. This brief communication presents a statistical analysis of occurrences of solar flares and earthquakes during the 24^th solar cycle. Overall, the findings indicate that it is unlikely to attribute solar flares as a trigger factor for earthquake events; however, the analysis reveals a limited number of intriguing instances that warrant further research.
