PEDERNALES/PORTOVIEJO, Rajab 15, 1437, April 22, 2016, SPA -- The death toll from Ecuador's devastating 7.8 magnitude earthquake rose to 602 people on Friday, as dozens of aftershocks shook cities and towns around the country, spooking residents but causing no further damage, according to Reuters. Saturday's quake, the worst in nearly seven decades, injured 12,492 people and left 130 missing, emergency management authorities said in a bulletin. Survivors were shaken again late on Thursday night when a powerful 6.0 magnitude quake struck off Ecuador's coast about 100 km (62 miles) north-northwest of Portoviejo and at a depth of 10 km (six miles). --SPA 00:55 LOCAL TIME 21:55 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
