(ANSA-AFP) - ZAGREB, DEC 29 - A powerful 6.4 magnitude
earthquake rocked Croatia on Tuesday, USGS reported, tearing
down buildings in the central town of Petrinja. The tremor,
which struck at a depth of 10 kilometres at around 1130 GMT, was
also felt strongly some 50 kilometres (30 miles) north of the
epicentre in Zagreb, where panicked residents raced onto the
streets, according to an AFP reporter.
Slovenia's Krsko nuclear power plant has been shut down as a precaution after a 6.2 magnitude earthquake was registered in neighbouring Croatia, the plant's spokeswoman said Tuesday.
