Cans and trays fell from shelves as a magnitude 6.4 earthquake hit a home bakery in the Philippines.

CCTV footage shows how several cans of milk, cookware, and baking trays fell to the floor during the violent shaking that woke residents in Abra province, yesterday (October 25).

The tremors caused part of the home's hollow block wall to crumble, homeowner Joemar Garcia said.

The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said the earthquake struck at a depth of 28 kilometres in Tineg, Abra, at 10.59 pm local time.

The quake has triggered suspensions in school and government work in neighbouring Ilocos Norte province.

Police and civil aviation authorities said at least 26 people have been injured in Ilocos Norte. No casualties have been reported so far.

Abra province was also the epicentre of a devastating magnitude 7 earthquake that struck last July 27.

The Philippines is an archipelago of more than 7,000 islands inside the Pacific "Ring of Fire" where the majority of Earth's volcano eruptions and earthquakes happen.
