Aftershock
Over 40 aftershocks rattled the rural region nestled in the Alborz Mountains, and residents rushed out of their homes in fear.
The quake was felt across Puerto Rico and was the strongest to hit the island in recent years.
“This was a very good wakeup call, essentially,” an emergency official said before urging residents to think about preparedness.
A widely felt magnitude 5.4 quake before dawn Friday was the strongest aftershock thus far.
WHAT'S HAPPENING
The Red Cross said it was focusing relief efforts on an estimated 20,000 people yet to get any assistance.
The death toll climbed to 55 and is expected to rise further.
