A major 6.3 magnitude earthquake hit western Iran on Sunday night, injuring hundreds of people and sending panicked residents running.
Between 300-500 people were reported injured in the quake. No casualties have been reported as of Sunday evening.
The earthquake originated 20 km (12.5 miles) southwest of Sarpol-e Zahab, in the Kermanshah Province of Iran close to the Iraq border, which experienced a devastating earthquake this time last year.
Iran sits along major fault lines and experiences near daily seismic events.

Hundreds hurt but no deaths, I've never seen a story like that. Hoping for the best for the people of this region. I saw another news report now saying, 600 hurt.
