A powerful 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck off Indonesia’s North Sulawesi province on Wednesday.
According to the country’s geophysics agency, the quake’s epicenter was at a depth of 64 kilometers, and 141 kilometers southeast of the town of Melonguane.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center, however, warned that there was a risk of tsunami waves located within 300 kilometres of the epicenter.
Indonesia rests atop the so-called “Pacific Ring of Fire”, making it one of the most seismically active regions in the world, experiencing frequent earthquakes.
