에콰도르 해안 6.2 지진+ 일본 동부 지진
A magnitude 6-point-2 earthquake shook the coast of Ecuador earlier this Wednesday, just days after a bigger quake battered the area and killed nearly 500 people.
And this just coming in... another powerful tremor has just hit eastcoast Japan... as that country also still reels from two mega quakes last week.
Our Lee Un-shin has the details.
Local officials have yet to report any signs of damage or deaths from the second strike on Wednesday.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center says the 6-point-2 magnitude quake struck in the ocean 70 kilometers from the town of Esmeraldas.
There have been no official tsunami warnings yet.
Just three days ago, a powerful earthquake struck Ecuador, killing at least 525, injuring thousands... and leaving even more without homes.
"All of our houses are on the ground. Everthing is lost. Everything is lost. There is nothing more to do with what was God's desire. There is nothing more to do."
Global organizations are rushing to send support... amid warnings of aftershocks and additional quakes.
The United Nations World Food Program is sending 15-days worth of food for eight-thousand people and bottled water to the worst-hit areas.
The UN agency will also send temporary shelters... and mosquito nets as a precaution against the Zika virus.
Geologists fear aftershocks and some project the consecutive quakes... may be a precursor to a hypothetical earthquake of magnitude 8 or greater... known as the "BIG ONE."
