A magnitude 6.3 earthquake struck the Turkey-Syria border region late on Monday, setting off panic and damaging buildings in Turkey's Antakya city.
The European Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) said the tremor struck at a depth of 2 km.
It comes two weeks after the region's worst earthquake in modern history left tens of thousands dead.
Two Reuters witnesses reported a strong quake and further damage to buildings in central Antakya, where it was centered. It was also felt in Egypt and Lebanon.
