A 4.0-magnitude earthquake struck the Tyrrhenian Sea, 20 km northeast of Ischia Island, Campania, Italy at 8.10pm Rome time. The quake had a very shallow depth of 10km.

The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.

The earthquake was felt by a lot of people since it struck at a very shallow depth. Weak shaking might have been felt in several towns or cities such as Bacoli (pop. 25,600) located 4 km from the epicenter, Bagnoli (pop. 23,300) 5 km away, Pozzuoli (pop. 45,600) 6 km away, Fuorigrotta (pop. 71,800) 8 km away, Soccavo (pop. 45,300) 9 km away, Pianura (pop. 57,800) 9 km away, Quarto (pop. 37,700) 10 km away, Naples (pop. 959,500) 14 km away, and Giugliano in Campania (pop. 80,300) 17 km away.
