Gempa berkekuatan 6.3 magnitud dilaporarkan telah menggoncang pusat bandar Manila pada petang Isnin, kata Pusat Kajian Geologi AS.
Bencana tersebut dikatakan antara yang terkuat melanda pada pukul 5.11 petang waktu tempatan (9.11 pagi GMT) di kedalaman cetek 25 batu, kira-kira 37 km barat laut.
Buat masa ini belum mengenai korban atau kerosakan. Filipina berada di atas ‘Ring of Fire’ yang aktif secara seismik yang meletakkan kedudukannya di sekitar gunung berapi dan fault linesย di Lautan Pasifik.
Netizen di media sosial turut berkongsi detik cemas berhadapan dengan gegaran yang melanda negara itu.
