The China Earthquake Administration has initiated emergency response measures and sent a team to the quake-hit area. An emergency response was also initiated by the regional seismological bureau.

At the village near the epicentre, where about 80 households are located, damaged houses and dead livestock were found, but no person was injured, officials said.

The United States Geological Service measured the quake at 6.5 magnitude. In the last five years, 83 earthquakes of magnitude 4 or over have occurred within 200 km radius of the epicentre with the largest recorded on Dec 7, 2015 when a quake of magnitude 7.4 hit the neighbouring Tajikistan.
