An earthquake with a magnitude of 6.3 has struck Turkey and Syria on Monday afternoon, according to the European and Mediterranean Seismological Center (EMSC).
In the Turkish city of Antakya, several buildings are said to have been damaged, eyewitnesses say according to Reuters.
Antakya, the capital of Hatay province, was hit hard by the strong tremors two weeks ago. Large parts of the city lie in ruins, and at the weekend the local authorities stated that at least 80 percent of the buildings in the city are either destroyed or have such extensive damage that they must be demolished.
