Measuring 3.1 on the Richter scale, it sent tremors through the area between Safed and Tiberias.A number of people contacted the police following the earthquake to say they felt the tremors, but no resulting damages or injuries were reported.

The last major earthquake hit in 1927, and many experts have been a predicting another one soon.Shira Poliak and Sharon Udasin contributed to this report.
