Niyanig ng magnitude 5.1 na lindol ang bayan ng Albuera sa lalawigan ng Leyte.

Naitala ang pagyanig sa 5 kilometers North ng Albuera alas 6:26 ng umaga ng Miyerkules, August 23.

Ayon sa Phivolcs, may lalim lang na 5 kilometers ang lindol at tectonic ang origin.

Dahil sa nasabing lindol naitala ang Intensity 5 sa Ormoc City, Intensity 4 sa Pastrana, Leyte; Intensity 3 sa Tacloban City at Palo Leyte at Intensity 1 sa Cebu City.

Hindi naman inaasahan ng Phivolcs na magdudulot ng pinsala ang naganap na pagyanig pero nagpaalala ang Phivolcs sa mga aftershocks na maaring maganap.
