A magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck the Philippines last night, centered in Abra province on the island of Luzon, less than 15 km from the town of Dolores. The earthquake struck at a focal depth of 10 km, making it a fairly shallow event. Damage was reported, primarily in Abra, where dozens of homes were reported collapsed and hundreds of other buildings showed foundation or wall cracks. Five people were killed by the temblor, mainly in collapsing structures, and at least 47 others were injured. The quake also triggered in excess of fifty small landslides in the mountainous region where the earthquake struck. The shaking was felt as far away as Manila, where train services were briefly stopped at rush hour, but no major damage was reported in the nation’s capital.
