A powerful 6.7 magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Bogo City, Cebu, on Tuesday night, sending residents across the entire Visayas region rushing out of their homes in fear.
The terrifying tremor occurred at 9:59 p.m. on September 30, with its epicentre located just 17 kilometres northeast of Bogo City. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) reported that the quake was recorded at a very shallow depth of 10 kilometres, a factor which critically intensified the shaking felt in nearby provinces and across the central Philippines.
