The quake hit the northwest of the island at 8:57 pm (1857 GMT), at a depth of just five kilometres. Italian authorities first put Monday night's quake at a 3.6 magnitude, but later revised it upward to 4.0 magnitude. The quake struck just days ahead of the first anniversary of the 6.0 magnitude quake that killed nearly 300 people in and around Amatrice in central Italy. Italian firemen and emergency workers search through rubble of a collapsed house in Ischia, on August 22, 2017.
