Moscow, Russia (AHN) - An earthquake measuring over 7 on the Richter scale rocked the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia's Far East region on Monday night, cutting off local power and water supplies.

The epicenter of the earthquake was near Mount Chyornaya, Viktor Bondarev, chief of the Olyutorsky district administration, was quoted by the Interfax news agency as saying.

Though no casualties were reported yet, the quake resulted in the power and water supplies getting cut off.

An earthquake of such strong intensity has hit the village of Tilichiki in April, forcing more than 1,200 people to be evacuated to Palana, Ossora and the Kamchatka region.
