There have been fatalities and damage in Haiti after a 7.2-magnitude earthquake Saturday morning, Haiti's Civil Protection told CNN.

The earthquake was about 12 kilometers (7.5 miles) northeast of Saint-Louis-du-Sud and 13 kilometers deep, according to the US Geological Survey (USGS).

There is no tsunami warning, advisory or threat in the area, according to the USGS.
