A 5.6 magnitude aftershock that struck the central Italian area devastated by yesterday's earthquake has killed at least one person, Italy's ANSA news agency reported today, without citing a source.
The aftershock, the most powerful since yesterday's 5.8 to 6.3 magnitude quake, struck the Abruzzo region at 17:47GMT.
It felled structures in the already battered medieval city of L'Aquila and was felt as far away as Rome, where furniture shook on the upper floors of buildings, witnesses said.
