A series of tremors have jolted central Croatia a day after a 6.3 magnitude earthquake killed at least seven people, injured dozens and left several towns and villages in ruins.
Now officials warn of the coronavirus spread in crowded shelters.
The strongest, 4.7 magnitude aftershock was recorded near the hardest-hit town of Petrinja, some 40 kilometres (25 miles) southeast of the Croatian capital, Zagreb.
Many people spent the night in tents, their cars or military barracks.
In the hard-hit village of Majske Poljane, where five people died a little boy could be seen sleeping inside a van, wearing a cap on the chilly morning.
