Huge 6.3 earthquake hits Indonesia's Pacific 'Ring of Fire' zone

 

The earthquake shook the eastern Indonesian region of Papua on Tuesday morning, the US Geological Survey said.

 

The monitor detected the geological event at round 8:24am (5:24pm local time).

 

It struck around 193 kilometres northwest of the town of Abepura in Papua, but there have been no reports of casualties or damage.

 

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no tsunami threat.

The US Geological Survey initially gave a magnitude of 6.5 before downgrading it.

 

The archipelago territory undergoes frequent earthquakes due to its location on the Pacific “Ring of Fire".
