One man is confirmed dead and several people are injured following a 7.3 magnitude earthquake in Peru.

The quake on Sunday initially sparked a tsunami warning for some coasts in Peru and neighbouring Chile, but this was quickly called off.

Its epicentre was in the Lomas district, in the southern region of Arequipa.
