Residents were injured and buildings damaged after a 6.9 magnitude earthquake hit the Philippines this morning (Aug 18).

The quake struck 68 kilometres southeast of Masbate Island in the central Bicol region at 8:03 am local time.

Footage from Albay shows a river shaking as the powerful tremors caused the water to slam into the banks.

While at a market in Masbate, there was damage to shops and stalls. The filmer said that at least one person was injured when items fell on them.

The US Geological Survey said there were no immediate reports of fatalites and there was no tsunami warning in place.
