One woman was injured in the Italian city of Naples after an earthquake shook buildings and disrupted power supplies.
A 4.4-magnitude earthquake struck Naples overnight, injuring one woman in the nearby town of Pozzuoli.Another person was rescued by the fire brigade with non-serious injuries. Italian seismologists said the earthquake struck at a depth of 2 kilometres from Pozzuoli at around 1:25 am CET. Damage was reported to buildings in Naples’ Bagnoli district, where a ceiling collapsed and several cars were damaged from falling rubble. The district’s Mayor Josi Gerardo Della Ragione wrote on Facebook that it had been a “rough night”. “But we won’t give up a millimetre,” he added.The tremors also caused damage to the bell tower of a nearby church as residents slept in their cars. The first tremor was followed by a swarm of six minor tremors with a magnitude of up to 1.2 on the Richter scale. On Thursday morning, Italy’s primary train operator reported delays on several lines due to technical checks as power cuts were reported across Naples. A rescue coordination centre has been set up to assist people impacted by the quake. Schools in the Bagnoli district were also closed on Thursday to facilitate building stability checks.
