A powerful magnitude 7.7 earthquake struck off the coast of Panama, according to seismologists. The tremor caused some damage to buildings but did not lead to widespread destruction.
The quake occurred in the early hours of the morning, affecting a coastal region. Local authorities confirmed that no major casualties were reported. Emergency services were deployed to assess the situation and ensure public safety.
This is the second significant earthquake to hit the area in recent months. The first occurred in March and was also felt across parts of Central America. Experts are monitoring the region closely for any signs of further seismic activity. The area is known for its tectonic activity due to its location near the boundary of the Caribbean and South American plates.
