Magnitude-3.0 aftershock strikes near Leongatha, south-east of Melbourne

Key points

• A magnitude 3.0 earthquake aftershock has been recorded in south-eastern Victoria, three weeks after an initial late-night quake woke thousands. Geoscience Australia said it struck at a shallow depth of 5 kilometres just after 2pm, with its epicentre at Kardella South, near Korumburra.
• More than 200 felt reports were lodged in the hour afterwards. No injuries or damage have been reported.
• Monash University earthquake geologist Dee Ninis said aftershocks are often felt hours, days or even weeks after a main quake, and the Gippsland Basin has a history of seismic activity.
