A resident looks at damages in Itbayat town, Batanes islands, northern Philippines on Saturday, July 27, 2019. Two strong earthquakes hours apart struck a group of sparsely populated islands in the Luzon Strait in the northern Philippines early Saturday.
“Our bed and everything were swaying from side to side like a hammock,” Esdicul told The Associated Press by cellphone from Basco town, the provincial capital. “We all ran out to safety.” The Philippine seismology agency said the quakes measured 5.4 and 5.9.
