A magnitude 7.3 earthquake strikes off the coast of Mexico’s southernmost state of Chiapas on Friday, according to reports from multiple outlets. The quake shakes buildings in southern Mexico and is felt as far away as Guatemala and El Salvador. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum says emergency protocols are activated, while authorities in Chiapas and the nearby state of Tabasco report no reported problems. Guatemala’s President Bernardo Arevalo says there are no deaths. Cyprus Mail and the South China Morning Post both report that there are no immediate reports of casualties or major damage. Other outlets describe the event as a magnitude 7.4 quake, but agree on the general location off Mexico near the region bordering Guatemala and the wide-reaching tremors felt across the border. Overall, authorities focus on initial assessments and monitoring, with early reports indicating limited or no visible damage and no confirmed casualties in the affected countries at the time of reporting.
