At least ten people, including a child, have been killed and dozens more hurt by two strong earthquakes in southern Spain.
A 4.4-magnitude tremor hit the small town of Lorca, in the region of Murcia on Wednesday afternoon.
It was followed by a stronger 5.3-magnitude quake around two hours later.
The epicentre of the quakes was close to the town of Lorca, and the second came about two hours after the first, officials said.
