Seismic-like event, possible earthquake, reported few minutes ago in or near Chile

We are receiving unverified early reports of seismic activity in or around Chile at approximately 00:49 GMT. There are no details yet on the magnitude or depth of this seismic-like event. It may or may not turn out to be an actual naturally occurring earthquake. We expect more accurate data to emerge in the next few minutes. The location and magnitude mentioned are indicative and temporary until the AllQuakes monitoring service receives more exact scientific data from a national or international seismological agency. Check back here shortly and stay safe.
