Prema prvim informacijama, poginulo je najmanje 100 osoba, dok je više stotina povrijeđeno.
Prema američkom seizmološkom zavodu USGS, katastrofalan potres magnitude 7.8 se dogodio u 04:17 sati po lokalnom vremenu na dubini od približno 17.9 kilometara. Strahuje se da bi broj žrtava mogao biti puno veći jer je potres većinu ljudi zatekao na spavanju.
Društvenim mrežama šire se snimci stravičnog zemljotresa, zatrpanih ljudi pod ruševinama te spašavanja.
