A series of strong aftershocks has rattled Chile, not far from where the deadly 8.8 magnitude quake caused widespread destruction and triggered a tsunami nearly a week ago.
The U.S. Geological Survey says the aftershock early Friday had a magnitude of 6.6 and was centered 41 kilometres northwest of Concepcion, the city hardest hit by last Saturday’s quake. There are no immediate reports of damage or injuries.
