An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.2 struck near San Salvador de Jujuy, in northern Argentina, on Thursday morning, the U.S. Geological Survey said.
The quake hit at a depth of 5.9 miles. It hit near the Argentine borders with Bolivia and Paraguay.
There were no immediate reports of damage or injuries.
I hope the damage was minimal, with no loss of life.
it's JUJUY, not Jujay. Need to check your sourcing!
Did they fix the spelling? It looks correct to me.
It's Jujuy!! Come on, CNN, you can do better...

( I have to be a little different after all )
Jujuy pronounces ( hoo-HOY ) its a small poor province in the NW of Argentina...a very seismic zone
As Americans we reject anything that sounds or resembles Latin America; however, mistakes like this one, made no less by a major U.S. media giant such as CNN which boasts itself as being "The Worldwide Leader in News" shows how little we try to learn and understand the latin general culture.
"As Americans we reject anything that sounds or resembles Latin America;"
I am from Europe and haven't heard about this, so i was really surprised with the way you said it, so easy, and calm. Why do you say Americans reject anything that sounds or resembles Latin America? Europeans simply love everything that sounds or resembles Latin America, their joy, energy, charisma... 😉 So i am quite curious about this.
Anyway, i hope the depth of the earthquake helped in reducing the dmg on the surface, and that there are no injured.
Best of luck Argentina!

Just goes to show how silly the bible is and proves that it is man-made gibberish. My faith is in our lawmakers. They will be launching a war on earthquakes soon.
Lovely. Another minor earthquake of minimal impact and CNN is out telling us that we should fear for our lives because global warming is going to cause huge earthquakes and wipe us all out.
God is telling humans to leave the Earth, and they're not listening.
OK, I'll jump as hard as I can, but I don't think I can manage it.
Where does it say that? Seems a minimal story for a minimal quake..
That was @boogietime.
And this is the only time you will ever see 'Argentina' and 'rocks' in the same sentence.
Argentina was rocked by an earthquake. Is that the same as being stoned ?
Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. Or something.
