A 5.8 magnitude earthquake struck the island of Luzon in the Philippines today, according to the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ).
The earthquake occurred at a depth of 10 kilometers, classifying it as a shallow quake, which typically increases the potential for surface impact.
As of now, no reports of significant damage or injuries have been issued. Luzon, the largest and most populous island in the Philippines, includes the capital Manila, making seismic events in the region particularly concerning.
Authorities are monitoring the situation closely for aftershocks or further developments.
