[Regnum] At least seven people were killed and 11 more were injured in a 7.4-magnitude earthquake that struck off the coast of the Philippines, Reuters reported on October 10.
7.4 is a pretty good shake
"Two powerful offshore earthquakes struck the southern Philippines on Friday [October 10], killing at least seven people," the publication said.

In addition, cities located in the immediate vicinity of the earthquake's epicenter suffered significant damage: the tremors damaged infrastructure and resulted in significant destruction of buildings and structures.



According to preliminary information, approximately 8,500 people were affected by the disaster, a significant number of whom were quickly evacuated to safe areas by rescue services. The threat of a tsunami and earthquake has been removed. A TASS source at the Russian Embassy later reported that the diplomatic mission had not received any information about Russian citizens injured in the disaster.

On September 30, a magnitude 6.9 earthquake struck off the coast of the Philippines. The earthquake, of tectonic origin, originated at a depth of 5 km, approximately 20 km northeast of Bogo City in Cebu Province. The earthquake killed at least 60 people.
