A magnitude-5.4 earthquake jolted Turkey's eastern province of Van on Thursday, according to the country's disaster agency.
The Disaster and Emergency Management Presidency (AFAD) said the quake struck off the Özalp district at 1.03 p.m. local time (1003 GMT). It originated at a depth of 6.9 kilometers.
Van Governor Mehmet Emin Bilmez said some houses were damaged due to the tremors, and damage assessment studies are ongoing.
No casualties have been reported so far.
Interior Minister Süleyman Soylu said on Twitter that further updates on the situation will be given to the public by Van Governorate and AFAD.
Iran and Turkey are among the most earthquake-prone countries in the world. In February, at least nine people died and 50 others were injured in Van after a magnitude-5.9 earthquake struck near the Iranian border region.
