Spanish holiday hotspots have been rocked by a magnitude 4.8 earthquake that left dozens injured.
Tourists were evacuated from their hotels after tremors were felt around 20km south west of Granada at around 10.38am local time, causing substantial damage across the city in southern Spain.
So far, three people have been injured, including one girl who was hospitalised, Andalusia's senior emergencies official confirmed.
Meanwhile, emergency services were hit with more than 50 calls to report instances of falling debris and cracks in buildings.
Pictures from the metropolitan region showed damage to vehicles, as well as rubble left thrown across the road.
Andalusia's president Juanma Moreno warned residents that "seismic movements and aftershocks" could still occur.
On social media, he wrote: "Once again, an earthquake shakes Granada. Maximum CAUTION.
"Experts point out that seismic movements and aftershocks may continue in the area, and it is important to know how we should act in these situations.

Today's tremors took place after a 5.0 magnitude quake shook tourists awake in the early hours of Sunday morning, at around 1am.
The regional authority confirmed that houses and vehicles had been damaged. However, there were no reports of injuries.
Heroic emergency services rescued a number of terrified people from buildings impacted by the unexpected quake.

Effects from the shock could be felt as far as central Spain, in Madrid, as locals across Malaga, Seville, Cordoba, Jaen and Almeria could feel the tremor as well.
At the time, the Vice President of the region's Government, Antonio Sanz Cabello, confirmed that Spanish authorities had declared an emergency situation.
He said: "If you're in Granada, you've felt the earthquake, you're okay, and your home shows no damage, stay calm and avoid entering and exiting buildings unnecessarily.
"On the street, stay away from facades, cornices, balconies, walls, and other elements that could fall."
But, despite Mr Cabello's call for calm, chaos engulfed the tourist hotspot, as terrified holidaymakers fled their hotels and AirBnbs in the middle of the night.
Dramatic footage on social media showed individuals fleeing to streets - with their luggage in tow.
Entire walls collapsed while major infrastructure, including buildings and roads, sustained considerable damage in the aftermath.
"We really felt the shaking, it was so strong that it woke us up," one witness recounted.
