A series of earthquakes rattled Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, and Montenegro in the early hours of the morning.

The initial quake struck at 4:06 AM, registering a magnitude of 5.4 on the Richter scale, with its epicenter located on the border between BiH and Montenegro, specifically between Nikšić and Gacka.

The tremors were also experienced in Serbia.

Srdjan Cekovic from the Seismological Institute of Montenegro informed RTS that the main quake was followed by around 30 aftershocks.

Just eight minutes later, a second earthquake measuring 3.1 on the Richter scale struck the region between Gacka and Nevesinje.
