COTABATO CITY, Philippines—A moderate magnitude 5.1 earthquake hit Mindanao Sunday morning, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) said.
The quake at a depth of 77.9 kilometers was recorded at 5:16 a.m. with its epicenter at 230 km southeast of Davao City, USGS said on its website.
The tremor was felt in the city of General Santos, Hinatuan in Surigao Del Sur, and in Manila. Officials were still determining whether there are casualties or damages.
The Philippines sits in the so-called Pacific Ring of Fire, an area where continental plates collide to produce frequent earthquakes and volcanic activities.
