A 4.8 magnitude earthquake hits Granada in southern Spain, shaking buildings for several seconds. Residents in and around the city report damage including cracks in walls and ceiling vibrations, with some debris falling in Alhendín, about 10 km south of Granada.
Local reporting indicates there are three injuries. The quake also leads to operational disruption at a major tourist site: the Alhambra faces a partial closure, with officials restricting access in response to safety concerns. Some accounts note that this quake follows days after a slightly stronger earthquake affected the city, adding to residents’ concern about recurring seismic activity. While most sources agree on the quake’s strength and the effects felt on the ground, the emphasis varies between reporting focused on structural impacts and reporting focused on injuries and restrictions at the Alhambra.
