Several tremors recorded in recent days

The tremor in these municipalities would have originated from a magnitude 4 earthquake recorded in the region of Turin, Italy, according to our colleagues.

The latter specify that an earthquake of magnitude 0.9 was noted the day before around 3 am in Saint-Paul-sur-Ubaye.
