An earthquake measuring 5.8 on the Richter scale struck western Ecuador last night, and there were no reports of material or human damage.
Reuters quoted the Euro-Mediterranean Seismological Center as saying that the earthquake, which occurred at a depth of 80 kilometers near the city of Guayaquil, was monitored.
In turn, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center ruled out the possibility of a tsunami in the ocean.
A devastating 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck Ecuador in 2016 off the northwest coast, killing 233 people and injuring more than 600 others.
