The 7.4-magnitude earthquake that struck Colombia was centered near San José del Palmar in the western department of Chocó. Local authorities report injuries and structural damage in Quibdó, where emergency teams are currently assessing the impact. The powerful quake forced widespread evacuations in major cities like Bogotá and Medellín, with shaking felt as far away as Ecuador and Venezuela. Officials urge residents to remain vigilant as seismic agencies monitor the region for potential aftershocks.
