At least six persons were killed when a powerful 6.6-magnitude earthquake jolted the remote mountainous region of western Nepal on early Wednesday. According to the National Seismological Centre, the earthquake occurred at 2:12 am with its epicenter at Khaptad National Park in the Doti district of the quake-prone Himalayan nation, damaging scores of houses and sparking panic among the people who were sleeping. Six persons have been killed and five sustained injuries in the earthquake.

The earthquake sent people in the mountain villages panicking out of their houses and many spent the entire night out in the open. Eight houses collapsed in the quake and cracks developed in most of the houses in the aftermath of the geological event. Those injured in the earthquake are undergoing treatment at the Doti Hospital.
