Iceland’s capital Reykjavik is rattled by powerful 5.6-magnitude earthquake

A 5.6-magnitude earthquake hit southwest Iceland on Tuesday, shaking buildings in the capital, Reykjavik.

There were no immediate reports of injuries.

The Icelandic Meteorological Office said the quake struck at 1:43 pm and was centred near Krysuvik, about 20 miles south of Reykjavik.

Volcanic Iceland is one of the most seismically active countries in the world, though most quakes are small and do little damage.
