An earthquake measuring 5.5 on the Richter scale jolted the Pakistan capital and parts of Punjab and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa provinces Saturday.
The quake occurred when people were preparing for sehri, the pre-dawn meal before a day of fasting during the holy month of Ramzan.
The temblor was felt in Islamabad, Lahore, Mandi Bahauddin, Jhelum, Gujranwala, Mansehra, Abbottabad, and towns and cities in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
The Met office said the epicentre of the quake was located 119 km from Srinagar in Jammu and Kashmir at a depth of 10 km.
