🚨A 7.0-magnitude earthquake shook Panama on the afternoon of October 9. The Geosciences Institute of the University of Panama located the epicenter 39 kilometers west of Tonosí, at a depth of just 10 kilometers.

📊 The report remains in a preliminary state. The shallow depth of 10 kilometers usually amplifies the perception of movement on the surface, which increases vigilance for possible aftershocks and structural damage.

📍 So far, the Geosciences Institute has not reported any damage to infrastructure or the population. Local authorities are continuing to monitor the situation after the seismic event.
