Reports revealed that dozens of people have been injured after a 5.3 magnitude earthquake hit Croatia Sunday morning, sparking blazes, cracking buildings and crushing cars under falling slabs of concrete.
People dashed onto the streets of Zagreb, the capital, at 6.23am (5.23am GMT) as their homes were shaken violently by the tremor.
Citizens had been ordered to stay inside due to coronavirus and banned from being in groups numbering more than five people.
Croatia has recorded 206 cases of the virus and one death since the outbreak began.
