Strong Earthquake Near Armenian Border



Remember the previous earthquake? Here's another, but with a different epicenter:
An earthquake measuring 5.0 on the open-ended Richter scale jolted the eastern Turkish province of Agri today, seismologists said.
Authorities said the quake had demolished homes in at least two villages and they were checking for casualties.

The epicentre of the tremor, which hit at 9.38am (6.38pm AEDT), was at the town of Tutak, near the borders with Armenia and Iran, the Istanbul-based Kandilli observatory said.
What's going on with the Earth?
