Lebanon's Seismic Network reported early Sunday that an earthquake measuring 3.9 on the Richter scale struck the eastern Mediterranean off the coast of Lebanon at midnight. The network stated that the earthquake occurred at an estimated depth of about 35 kilometers, making it felt in Beirut and several Lebanese regions. It explained that the shallow depth of the tremor contributed to residents feeling it more clearly compared to deeper earthquakes of the same magnitude, with no material damage or injuries reported.
