6.0-Magnitude Earthquake Strikes Peru, USGS Reports
05:32 GMT 31.05.2020 (Updated: 13:07 GMT 09.02.2023) Last year, the Latin American country was hit by a powerful 8.0-magnitude earthquake that left two people dead and some 30 injured.
According to preliminary information provided by the United States Geological Survey (USGS), a 6.0-magnitude earthquake has struck 32 km west-northwest of Lampa, Peru, at a depth of 153.4 km.
There were no immediate reports about any damage or casualties.
In May 2019, two people were killed and over 30 people injured after a devastating 8.0-magnitude earthquake rocked parts of Peru and neighbouring Ecuador.
According to Peruvian President Martin Vizcarra, the 2019 quake was the most powerful to hit the earthquake-prone country in 12 years.
