New York Times: “A powerful 6.4-magnitude earthquake struck central Croatia on Tuesday, according to the U.S. Geological Survey, with local rescue crews reporting widespread damage near the epicenter in the town of Petrinja and the surrounding area. There was no immediate confirmation of casualties, but there were reports that the quake, which hit just after noon local time, could be felt across the Balkans and as far away as Hungary.”
“Images from the scene on social media and local television stations showed streets strewn with rubble, buildings with roofs caved in and rescue crews rushing through the streets. In one scene captured by local television crews, a man and a child were pulled from a car buried under debris and rushed to the hospital. Petrinja is about 30 miles southeast of Zagreb, the capital, where buildings were rocked and debris from broken windows and damaged structures littered the streets. The Red Cross in Croatia said it was a ‘very serious’ situation.”
