It has been 20 days after the mainshock in eastern #Taiwan, and now the area is struck by an aftershock cluster containing multiple M6 and M5 earthquakes in the last 24 hours. The strongest one is estimated to be M(L) 6.3, with hypocenter depth very close to the surface.

Initial reporting from local media suggests no one was in either building when it happened.
China Times is reporting the collapse of at least two buildings in Hualien after those quakes earlier chinatimes.com/realtimenews/2…

Heavy rain, a landslide and earthquakes. A railway line was severed in Hualien after torrential rains led to the collapse of a mountainside. Later in the evening the area also saw a series of tremors that were felt across Taiwan's main island.
