Egypt hit by 5.6-magnitude earthquake with tremors felt across Middle East

A 5.6-magnitude earthquake struck near Suez, Egypt, early Monday, with tremors felt across Egypt and neighboring countries including the Gaza Strip, Jordan, and Lebanon. The National Research Institute of Astronomy and Geophysics confirmed the quake, noting no immediate casualties or property damage. Over 3,190 residents reported feeling the earthquake, with shaking detected up to 400km from the epicenter. The German Research Centre for Geosciences measured the quake at 5.4 magnitude, slightly lower, and noted a depth of 10km. The Egyptian Red Crescent activated emergency protocols, advising caution around potentially damaged structures. A separate 3.8-magnitude earthquake was reported in northern Iraq, according to Jordan’s Petra news agency.
