Zimbabwe experiences earthquake of 5.5 magnitude

An earthquake shook the eastern part of Zimbabwe and neighbouring Mozambique a few hours back. A 5.5 magnitude tremor struck shortly after 7:30 am and was felt by many in Zimbabwe's capital city, Harare.

The United States Geological Survey that the earthquake took place 50 kilometers from Zimbabwe's south eastern town of Chipinge, EWN noted. Whereas the epicentre is reported to have been across the border in Mozambique. The residents living in the South African country's eastern city of Mutare, over 180 kilometers away, were reported experiencing the tremors while in fuel queues. However, there was no report on damage or injuries.
