I would firstly check the belt by having a look at it.
Secondly stop engine in safe mode with pin through flywheel.
Then take off the back covers and check if the markings on the secondary sprockets are in line. If correctly timed all marks must align.
Depending on the jump, if small most likely no damage, if larger, bent valves.
However, if it has happened, why? Most likely a tensioner or an idler wheel.
Have the belts been replaced? how much mileage, age??
