TEHRAN (AP) ― An earthquake of moderate strength caused damage and injured 100 people in the city of Neyshabour in the northeast part of Iran Thursday afternoon, Iran’s state TV reported.
The TV report said 17 of the injured were hospitalized and the others were treated for minor injuries and released.
As the quake rumbled through the area, many residents of the city fled their homes into the streets. Rescue teams were still at work in the area late Thursday.
The magnitude 5.5 quake shattered windows and affected communications for a short time.
It also destroyed walls of homes in some rural areas, the report said.
