💨 Abstract

A magnitude 6.2 earthquake occurred off the coast of North Maluku, Indonesia, on Wednesday, according to the geophysics agency. The earthquake, which was 81 km deep, did not pose a tsunami threat. Initial reports indicated no damage, but the disaster mitigation agency was yet to comment. Indonesia, situated on the Pacific Ring of Fire, is prone to seismic activity due to plate movement on the Earth's crust.
