SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) — A major earthquake rocked a large area of northern Chile on Wednesday, and it was felt in the capital of Santiago.
“For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.”
—Mat 24:7
The quake, which struck at 10:40 a.m., measured magnitude 7.7 and was centered 780 miles north of Santiago, or 25 miles east-southeast of Tocopilla, Chile, the U.S. Geological Survey said.
The USGS said it occurred 38 miles beneath the surface.
