Italy quake: Thousands spend night in temporary accommodation

Thousands of people in central Italy have spent yesterday night in cars, tents and temporary shelters following the fourth earthquake in the area in three months.<br/><br/>The 6.6-magnitude quake, Italy's strongest in decades, struck close to the region where nearly 300 people were killed by a quake in August. This time no-one appears to have died in the quake near the town of Norcia, but about 20 people were injured.<br/><br/>More than 100 aftershocks were registered overnight. These included one with a magnitude of 4.2.
