A moderate 5.2 magnitude earthquake rocked Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province on Wednesday, days after 40 people were killed in a powerful quake in PoK and other parts of the country.

Wednesday's quake struck at a depth of 180kms with epicentre lying at the Hindu Kush mountains.

Jolts were felt in Peshawar, Mansehra, Battagram, Torghar and Kohistan.
