A minor 2.1-magnitude earthquake hit North Korea's Haejoo area, the Korea Meteorological Administration said on Tuesday.

It is presumed to be a natural earthquake, KMA officials said.

The seismic activity was recorded at 4 p.m. The epicenter was about 25 kilometers west of Haejoo, South Hwanghae Province, with the quake occurring 11 kilometers underground. There is no known underground nuclear test site in the province.

"It's presumed to be natural," a KMA official said.

It was the 84th earthquake of 2.0 magnitude or more on the Korean Peninsula this year.
