KIM ATIENZA – Kapuso host Kuya Kim Atienza shared his 6.2 magnitude earthquake experience on social media.
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) reported that a magnitude 6.3 earthquake hit Calatagan town in Batangas on Thursday morning. It was also felt in areas of Metro Manila.
According to Phivolcs, the earthquake was felt at a depth of 103 kilometers and was recorded four kilometers southwest of the mentioned region.
Amor Calayan, the director of the disaster risk reduction and management office in Batangas, stated on radio DZRH that they are traveling to Calatagan to investigate the effects of the earthquake but that no reports of damage have yet been received.
“Please do not panic because we at the province of Batangas, we are on the way to respond,” Amor said in Filipino.
There were no initial reports of damage in Metro Manila, but the airport’s runway was blocked for inspection, and the three main train lines that operate through the metropolis and neighboring provinces briefly ceased service. Director of Phivolcs Teresito Bacolcol stated on DZRH that the 103-kilometer-deep Manila Trench may have been the source of the strong tremor.
