A strong seismic tremor shocked southern Mexico on Friday, rattling nerves and influencing tall buildings hundreds miles away in the capital, yet there were no reports of genuine harm, wounds or passings.

The U.S. Geological Survey detailed that the tremor had a magnitude of 6.6. It was focused around 10 miles from the city of Tapachula in Chiapas state and struck at a profundity of 40 miles.

Chiapas civil defense official Arturo Barrientos told The Associated Press that there were no reports of genuine harm and specialists were observing the circumstance.

Barrientos said breaks showed up in a divider at an elementary school in the state capital, Tuxtla Gutierrez, however the kids were emptied securely.

“It was felt pretty strongly, but everything is normal. We went out into the street, and that was it,” Enrique Vidal, a lawyer who lives in Tapachula said via text message. “Those with children in schools went to look for them since there are buildings that are still damaged from 2017.”

A similar locale was shaken in September 2017 by a magnitude 8.1 seismic tremor that killed almost 100 individuals and harmed a huge number of buildings. An all the more harming 7.1 shudder in central Mexico soon thereafter left in excess of 400 dead, incorporating something like 228 in Mexico City.

“Fortunately there is no loss of human lives nor injuries that require hospitalization,” Luis Manuel Garcia, Chiapas’ civil defense secretary, told Foro TV. “Only nervousness.”

Friday’s tremor was additionally felt in close-by Guatemala and more remote away in El Salvador.

In Guatemala, the Red Cross revealed some mud and rockslides along streets, and a bridge in the city of Quetzaltenango had some minor harm.

Along a central boulevard in Mexico City, which lies on lakebed soil that enhances the impacts of even faraway tremors, seismic alerts did not go off but rather some office workers briefly evacuated buildings.
