MANILA: A 4.8 magnitude earthquake struck Thursday near a northern Philippine city home to hundreds of thousands of people, with state seismologists saying they expected damage.
Employees rushed out of office buildings in the city of 366,000 following the shallow quake which occurred at 10:3 am (0230 GMT), 10 days after a powerful quake killed more than 70 people in the central Philippines, residents told AFP by telephone. - AFP
