A 5.2 magnitude earthquake struck Zagreb this morning. The earthquake was registered at 06.28, and two minutes later there were two more. There are no reports of casualties at this stage. The material damage is significant. Vanya Dzheferovich’s family was also at the epicenter of the earthquake.
Around 6.30 in the morning local time, a strong earthquake awakens the footballer. “I thought I was dreaming something. It’s like a train that passes the house, but there are no trains around us. The whole house shook, some things fell into the room. In general, it lasted between 5 and 10 seconds,” he says.

The epicenter of the earthquake was in the city of Sisak, about 50 kilometers from the Djaferovic family. The locals immediately fled outside. “It was very scary overall. This was followed by a second earthquake, which was 4.9 or 4.7 on the Richter scale. It was terrifying,” Dzaferovic said.
Many people panicked over the earthquake because they still remember the strong earthquake that struck Zagreb in March. Then after 5.3 on the Richter scale, one person died and nearly 30 were injured.
“That’s when you understand that nothing depends on us in this world,” Vanya Djaferovic commented.
There is almost no material damage in Zagreb, he added. However, the destruction in Sisak and the other city near the epicenter, Petrinya, is significant.
“Citizens continue to call the fire brigade and ambulance personnel. Since the morning, there have been more than 100 calls and 50 interventions,” said Kristina Banicek, mayor of Sisak.
