6.2 undersea quake strikes off Indonesia's Lombok: USGS
Indonesia experiences frequent seismic and volcanic activity because of its position on the Pacific "Ring of Fire".
An earthquake of magnitude 6.2 struck off the Indonesian island of Lombok on Thursday, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) said.
The quake, at a depth of 29 km, hit at a distance of 234 km from Lombok at 12:13 pm (local time), it added. There were no immediate reports of casualties or damage, however.
Indonesia experiences frequent seismic and volcanic activity due to its position on the Pacific "Ring of Fire," where tectonic plates collide.
On June 5, a 6.3-magnitude earthquake struck in the Banda Sea in remote eastern Indonesia, but there was no tsunami warning was issued.
The quake struck at 00:25 am (1625 GMT Sunday) at a depth of 428 kilometres (265 miles), about 300 kilometres from Ambon Island, the US Geological Survey said.
The epicentre was far from land, and Indonesia's Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency said the quake was not strong enough to trigger a tsunami.
