6.5 Magnitude Earthquake ROCKS Colombia as Sirens Blare in Bogota | Prez. Candidate Shot Same Day

A powerful 6.5 magnitude earthquake struck Colombia’s capital Bogota on Sunday, June 8, 2025, causing widespread panic as buildings trembled and residents ran for safety. Originating at a depth of 10 km, the quake hit 170 km from Bogota at 9:08 am local time. The tremors coincided with a national tragedy as presidential candidate Miguel Uribe Turbay was shot at a campaign event the same day. He was seen bleeding from the head and back in videos. Colombia now reels from a double crisis—natural disaster and political violence. #ColombiaEarthquake #BogotaEarthquake #EarthquakeToday #MiguelUribeTurbay #ColombiaNews #BreakingNews #Bogota #ColombianPolitics #SeismicZone #6Point5Magnitude #GFZ #USGS #PresidentialCandidateShot #ColombiaElection2025 #CampaignAttack #TerrorInBogota #EarthquakeHorror #EmergencyInColombia #QuakeAndChaos #June82025 Also Read Ryo Tatsuki’s Earthquake Warning: The New Baba Vanga Whose Predictions Are Shaking the World :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ryo-tatsuki-earthquake-warning-the-new-baba-vanga-whose-predictions-are-shaking-the-world-4159403.html?ref=DMDesc Earthquake In Pakistan: National Center for Seismology Reports 4.2 Magnitude Tremors :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/earthquake-in-pakistan-national-center-for-seismology-reports-4-2-magnitude-tremors-4143877.html?ref=DMDesc Powerful 7.3 Magnitude Earthquake Strikes Argentina Near Ushuaia :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/powerful-7-3-magnitude-earthquake-strikes-argentina-near-ushuaia-4141681.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~
