A 6.6-magnitude earthquake hit off the west coast of Cyprus according to the US Geological Survey and reports said it was also felt in nearby Israel, Lebanon and Turkey.
The USGS said the strong and relatively shallow quake was centered 48 kilometers (30 miles) west-northwest of the town of Polis on the Mediterranean island.
It shook buildings in the capital of Nicosia, with frightened people going out into the streets as buildings were shaking.
One Nicosia resident told news agencies that, “It was frightening. The whole building was shaking endlessly; I thought it will never end.”
Also, in Israel, people reported feeling tremors from the earthquake across the country but there were no immediate reports of damage or injuries.
The Israeli Police said they received hundreds of calls from concerned residents but reassured the public that there were no threats of a tsunami. The Mediterranean island is some 450 kilometers (280 miles) from Israel.
Arab news agencies also reported the strong and relatively shallow quake shaking the countries of Lebanon and Turkey with Egypt also feeling it.
The Biblical prophecies (Matthew 24, Luke 21, Revelation 6) foretell that there will be various earthquakes in diverse places in the Last Days signaling we are nearing the end of this age and the coming of Jesus Christ.
These events and conditions happening now are warning signs pointing to the nearing fulfillment of the Last Days prophecies at the end of this age revealing it’s time to prepare now for the nearing appearance of Jesus Christ for His Church by being born again spiritually into the Kingdom of God as Jesus said we must (John 3) and His Apostles who were authorized (Matthew 16:19) described how (Acts 2).
