A strong, magnitude 6.2 earthquake hit the area of ​​Petrinja in Croatia, and was also felt in Serbia.

The center of Petrinja has been completely destroyed, while a 12-year-old girl has been killed. A large number of Zagreb residents left their homes, and many are trying to leave the city, which has led to a traffic collapse.

Due to the earthquake, the operation of the Krsko nuclear power plant in neighboring Slovenia has been shut down as a precautionary measure.
