A magnitude 6.0 earthquake has struck western Turkey, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) said, while the country’s interior minister said there were no immediate reports of deaths or significant damage.
The quake was at a depth of 2 kilometres (1.2 miles), EMSC said.
Turkey’s Disaster and Emergency Management Authority (AFAD), which measured the quake at magnitude 5.9, said the epicentre of the tremor had been in Golyaka, a district in the northwestern province of Duzce.
