Bij de aardbeving in Pakistan werd in eerste instantie ook van enkele doden gesproken. Dat bleken er later 'iets' meer te zijn .... Dat zal nu wel niet anders zijn; zeker omdat ze over verwoeste dorpe spreken ...quote:A powerful earthquake has hit southern Iran, killing at least nine people, injuring dozens more and damaging several villages, officials say.
The 5.9-magnitude quake struck Qeshm island, home to 120,000 people, and the city of Bandar Abbas, state media said.
The Qeshm island governor said four nearby villages, home to 6,000 people, had been severely damaged.
The quake, which struck at 1353 (1023 GMT), was felt in the neighbouring Gulf states of Oman and the UAE.
Iran sits in a volatile earthquake region, and is regularly struck by damaging quakes.
A 6.4-magnitude quake hit the town of Zarand in Kerman province in February, killing hundreds of people.
The ancient city of Bam was destroyed in December 2003 by a 6.7-strength earthquake that killed more than 26,000 people.
'We panicked'
Heydar Alishbandi, governor of Qeshm island, told the AFP news agency that the western villages of Gabardin, Tonban, Tourian and Khaldin had been badly hit.
In one village up to 80% of buildings were reportedly destroyed, says the BBC's Frances Harrison in Tehran.
Qeshm city, the provincial centre, remained largely unscathed, although state TV reported that market stalls were knocked to the ground.
"We were panicked. I saw an injured person with blood on their clothes being taken to a local hospital," one woman in Qeshm told AFP.
The island's main hospital was full of injured people from villages affected by the quake, the official Irna news agency said.
There were reports of people fleeing buildings in the larger city of Bandar Abbas, a major port, but no indications of serious damage.
Officials fear that many of the traditional low-rise buildings affected were not designed to withstand a quake, our correspondent says.
Qeshm island is a popular tourist spot home to lush forests and a famous turtle conservation reserve.
The surrounding area has not been hit by a quake in more than 25 years.
