ISTANBUL: Many areas of eastern Turkiye were shaken by a 5.9-magnitude quake on Wednesday although there were no immediate reports of fatalities, officials said.
The tremor happened at 10:46 am (0746 GMT) in Kale in Malatya, a province that was badly hit by a violent 7.8-magnitude earthquake in 2023 that killed more than 53,500 people in Turkiye and almost 6,000 in neighbouring Syria.
“For now, there has been no loss of life nor destruction of property following the magnitude 5.9 earthquake,” the state´s AFAD disaster management agency wrote on X.
