Bulgaria: No Reports of Casualties, Damage from Northern Bulgaria Earthquake

Bulgaria's Civil Defense informed Saturday evening that they have not received any reports of injured people or damages from the Vrancea earthquake.

The 5.3-point earthquake was felt strongly in northern Bulgaria at 20:18 pm. The epicenter is in the Vrancea area, where a major fault line caused dozens of quakes in recent years.

The Civil Defense in the city of Razgrad reported that the quake has been felt in the entire Razgrad region, but there are no reports of damages either. Mobile phones could not be reached for several minutes.
