A magnitude 5.6 earthquake shook southern Turkey on Monday, just three weeks after twin quakes devastated the region and killed over 50,000 people.
Monday's earthquake was centred in the town of Yesilyurt in Malatya province, the country's disaster management agency said.
One person was reportedly killed, while 69 others are injured and an unknown number of buildings are said to have collapsed, according to Disaster and Emergency Management (AFAD) President Sezer.
Habertürk reporter Ferdi Durdu reported that a building collapsed in front of the Provincial Directorate of Environment, Agriculture and Climate Change and some vehicles were left under the rubble.
Yesilyurt's mayor, Mehmet Cinar, told Haber Turk television channel that a number of buildings in the town collapsed, including a four-story building where a father and daughter were trapped.
Mr Cinar said the pair had entered the damaged building to collect belongings.
According to the preliminary information on the AFAD's website, search and rescue teams have been dispatched to the region: "After the 5.6 magnitude earthquake that occurred in the Yeşilyurt district of Malatya province, it was determined that buildings had collapsed, and our search and rescue teams were quickly dispatched to the region and started to work."
It was also said that apart from Malatya, the earthquake was felt in surrounding provinces, including Kahramanmaraş, Gaziantep, Adıyaman and Şanlıurfa.
Malatya was among 11 Turkish provinces hit by the magnitude 7.8 earthquake that devastated parts of southern Turkey and northern Syria at the start of February.
AFAD said that close to 10,000 aftershocks have hit the region affected by the quake since February 6 and more than 173,000 buildings have been damaged, leaving nearly two million residents homeless, according to government data.
Nearly 240,000 rescue workers, including volunteers, continue to work in the 11 quake-hit provinces in Turkey. Recovery efforts are continuing and casualty numbers are rising as rescuers sadly pull out more people dead than alive.
Some 20 million people in Turkey have been affected by the quake, while the United Nations estimates 8.8 million people have been affected in Syria.
Less information has come from Syria where many people were already living in precarious conditions after years of civil war.
