A strong earthquake hit Indonesia again

Indonesia has been shaken by an earthquake for the second time in a day after the terrible earthquakes in Turkey and Syria. An earthquake measuring 6 on the Richter scale struck near the country's Talaud Islands on Saturday.

According to the British news agency Reuters, a strong earthquake occurred near the Talaud Islands in Indonesia on Saturday. This earthquake originated at a depth of 11 km from the surface.

The earthquake was felt near the country's Talaud Islands on Saturday (February 11). The magnitude 6 earthquake, recorded on the Richter scale, originated at a depth of 11 km from the surface.

Indonesia's geological agency BMKG confirmed this information in a tweet. However, there is no possibility of a tsunami due to the earthquake, the agency said.

Earlier, a moderate earthquake hit the country's Papua province last Thursday (February 9). The magnitude of the earthquake was 5.5 on the Richter scale. At least four people lost their lives when a floating restaurant collapsed into the sea in that earthquake.

Indonesia, a country in the Pacific Ocean, is located near the 'Ring of Fire'. This extensive region is highly prone to earthquakes. The region also has the highest number of volcanic eruptions in the world.
