Eastern Cuba jolted by moderate earthquake
Article >>
The Haitian quake last month shook eastern Cuba but not badly enough to cause injuries or damage.
In the town of Baracoa, at Cuba's eastern tip and about 35 miles (56 km) north-northwest of the epicentre, employees at the Communist Party headquarters described Friday's earthquake, which struck at 7:09 a.m. EST (1209 GMT), as strong but brief.
"The ground shook strongly but it happened faster than the Haitian earthquake. Luckily, it passed quickly," a party worker said in a phone interview.
"So far, there are no known injuries or collapses, nor are they evacuating people," he said.
