A 6.4 magnitude earthquake has hit southern Turkey, weeks after a deadly earthquake devastated the region.
According to AFP, the earthquake hit the town of Defne at 8:04 p.m. (5:04 p.m. GMT) and is strongly felt in Antakya and Adana, 200 km (300 mi) north.
An AFP reporter reported panic, adding that new tremors created dust clouds in the devastated city.
The walls of badly damaged buildings crumbled as several people, apparently injured, called for help.
According to the President of Disaster and Emergency Management, more than 6,000 aftershocks have been recorded since the magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck Turkey and Syria.
