According to the Republic Seismological Institute, the tremor occurred at 10:05 p.m. local time.
Estimates indicate that the theoretical intensity at the epicenter ranged between VI and VII on the Mercalli intensity scale, meaning moderate damage to buildings in the epicentral area is possible.
Earthquakes of this magnitude are typically strongly felt across a wider area, but there have so far been no reports of injuries or significant material damage.
As reported by a Newsmax Balkans correspondent from Vranje, the earthquake was also felt in the city, unsettling residents who reported ground vibrations and swaying furniture.
Residents stated that the tremor lasted several seconds and was clearly felt inside residential buildings, particularly on higher floors.
