      According to the European Mediterranean Seismological Center, the quake struck at a depth of 10km (6.2 miles) off the Turkish resort city of Bodrum in Mugla Province.

      No casualties or serious damages were reported on Turkish side but a floor at the state hospital in the port city of Bodrum did collapse, injuring a further 70 people.
