Over 500 are injured after a magnitude 6.3 earthquake in western Iran.

Authorities said, a magnitude 6.3 struck Iran near its border to Iraq on Sunday night, injuring more than 500 and sending residents running into the streets. According to Iranian State television, of the 500 hurt, most injuries appeared to be minor, with only 33 needing hospitalization. 

The quake hit near the community of Sarpol-e Zahab, which was the epicenter of an earthquake last year that killed more than 600 and where some still remain homeless.
