Another earthquake struck Mexico on Saturday, with an epicentre 11km from the city of Oaxaca on this occasion.

Slight tremors were felt and seismic alarms sounded on Saturday in Mexico City, which earlier this week was hit by the country’s most deadly earthquake in decades. The earlier 7.1 magnitude earthquake destroyed more than 50 buildings in the sprawling Mexican capital on Tuesday, leaving thousands homeless and close to 300 people dead nationwide.
