A 6.7 magnitude shallow earthquake struck Central Indonesia on Tuesday morning, according to the United States Geological Survey. The quake hit southeast of Palu city in Central Sulawesi province at 10:27 a.m. local time. Authorities reported no immediate casualties or major damage following the tremor.

Indonesia’s Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency said the quake was strongly felt in Palu and Sigi areas but confirmed there was no tsunami threat. A local resident, Nurhaida, described feeling a strong jolt while working in her kitchen and quickly evacuated her home with her children.

Indonesia lies on the Pacific “Ring of Fire,” a region prone to frequent seismic activity due to tectonic plate collisions. The area has a history of destructive earthquakes, including a 7.5 magnitude quake and tsunami in Palu in 2018 that killed more than 2,200 people.
