A 6.4 magnitude earthquake shook parts of Afghanistan and Pakistan on Thursday, Pakistani officials and the U.S. Geological Survey said.
It's the third major earthquake to hit Afghanistan in three months.
The earthquake's epicenter was in the Hindu Kush mountain range in Afghanistan, the Pakistan Meteorological Department said.
According to the U.S. Geological Survey, the epicenter was 28 miles from Jurm village in northeastern Afghanistan at a depth of 128 miles.
The earthquake scared residents into fleeing their homes and offices as well as frightening people in remote villages, but there have been no immediate reports of damage in either Afghanistan or Pakistan.
Tremors were felt in Delhi, India after the earthquake, according to the Indian Express.
