Tajikistan was hit on Saturday by an earthquake measuring 4 on Richter scale.
A spokeswoman for the Emergency and Civil Defense Committee of Tajikistan, Umida Yusufi, reported that a 4.0-magnitude earthquake occurred early Saturday morning.
"At 5:01 am today, Saturday, local time, an earthquake of 4 degrees occurred in the territory of Tajikistan," said Yousefi.
Yusufi added that the epicentre of the quake was 260 km southeast of the capital, Dushanbe. And she continued: "In Dushanbe, the magnitude of the earthquake reached two degrees, and there are no victims or injuries."
Tajikistan is witnessing many earthquakes and landslides, most notably the 5.3-magnitude earthquake that struck the mountainous Badakhshan region in January 2010, and caused the displacement of about 20,000 people after they lost their homes.
