A magnitude 5.5 earthquake struck waters off Davao Occidental on Wednesday morning, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) said, according to ABS-CBN.
The initial report did not give the quake's exact epicentre, depth or felt intensities. It also did not say whether there was any damage, injuries or aftershocks.
DavaoNews will update this story as PHIVOLCS and local authorities release more information.
Why it matters for Davao
Davao Occidental is part of the Davao Region, so residents of Davao City may want to watch for further PHIVOLCS advisories about the quake.
