An earthquake jolted southern Iran over night, with no immediate report about casualties.

The Iranian Seismological Center said the earthquake, measuring 5.0 on the Richter scale, shook the Hendorabi island in the Homruzgan province at 18:21:08 GMT, with the epicenter at the depth of 10 km, and at 26.78 degrees north latitude and 53.77 degrees east longitude.

The U.S. Geological Survey reported earlier that the earthquake measured 5.1 on the Richter scale, and its epicenter, with a depth of 30.80 km, was initially determined to be at 27.1461 degrees north latitude and 53.9545 degrees east longitude.
