Victoria's Gippsland region was hit by an earthquake, causing disruption and damage.
Last night, the Gippsland region in Victoria was shaken by a magnitude 3.0 earthquake. Reports flooded in from over 80 witnesses who felt the tremors from the quake. The epicenter was near Sandy Point, a small town about 188km southeast of Melbourne. The earthquake occurred at 7:54pm, at a depth of approximately 10km. Thankfully, there have been no immediate reports of significant damage.

The Victorian State Emergency Service (SES) quickly sprang into action, urging anyone who experienced property damage or needed assistance to call their assistance line at 132 500. This kind of support is crucial in times like these, and the SES is always ready to lend a helping hand.

For those unfamiliar with the area, Sandy Point is located near Wilsons Promontory, a beautiful national park known for its rugged coastlines and stunning views. Unfortunately, this is not the first time Victoria has experienced an earthquake in recent weeks. Just three weeks ago, a 4.1 magnitude quake hit the state's high country, causing quite a stir among the community. More than 1400 people reported feeling the effects of the quake, highlighting the widespread impact of such natural disasters.
