More than 300 people are dead and 2-and-a-half thousand are injured after an earthquake, according to officials in Iran.
It's shaken the Iraqi border region, where the coroner's office has warned the figures will increase.
More than 1-hundred aftershocks have been recorded.
The earthquake was centred about 19 miles outside the eastern Iraqi city of Halabja at about 6.20pm Irish Time on Sunday.
It was just 15 miles deep and was felt for about 20 seconds in Baghdad and was also felt in Turkey, Kuwait and Israel.
The quake triggered landslides in the mountainous region along the Iran-Iraq border, also destroying buildings, shattering windows and sending people running for safety.
