5.6 magnitude earthquake strikes Azerbaijan
An earthquake with a magnitude of 5.6 struck Azerbaijan early today.
The epicenter, located in the Caspian Sea, occurred at around 8:16 am local time (0416GMT). The earthquake's tremors were also felt in Azerbaijan's capital, Baku. Fortunately, according to the Emergency Situations Ministry of Azerbaijan, there have been no reports of damage or casualties.
