Another major earthquake hit Italy overnight which marked the second time this has happened within the past three months.
According to reports, a 6.6 magnitude quake was measured near Norcia and felt as far away as Rome. There’ve been several reports of injuries but no deaths which is pretty amazing judging from the damaged displayed in the pictures below.

And like the quake that hit back in August historical sites weren’t spared including the Basilica of St. Benedict was looked to be completely destroyed.
