An earthquake occurred in Kapan city of Armenia’s Syunik Region, on Wednesday at around 10:25am, a Kapan resident told Armenian News-NEWS.am. According to him, there was a strong tremor, but, fortunately, there was no devastation. 

In the resident’s words, the Kapan locals have become “immune” to tremors after the recent quake in Iran, but they left the buildings yet again, and the children came out of their school buildings and stood in open areas. 

Weak tremors measuring 3-4 magnitude were recorded in Kapan, Kajaran, and Goris cities. The details are being ascertained and they will be made public sometime later, the Ministry of Emergency Situations informed Armenian News-NEWS.am.
