on fediverse you can search @earthquake@social.yl.ms which is a bot that posts every earthquake that is reported. I saw a 4.5 magnitude sometime this weekend in that country. When i first saw the articles, i was a bit taken aback, both at the delay in reporting and that such a small earthquake had done so much destruction.

It is possible i am misremembering, but it could have been a fore-shock, as well.

Note: i don't watch fediverse or any social network enough to have seen any other reporting or whatever on this. My phone spammed me about it, the first such notification i've received this year, and i live in a Gulf state in the US.
