A magnitude 6.4 earthquake struck northern Sumatra, Indonesia, at 6:54 pm on Wednesday, according to the Meteorological Department of Malaysia (MetMalaysia). While tremors were felt in various parts along the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia, there is no tsunami threat to Malaysia, as reported by Bernama quoting MetMalaysia. Indonesia's BMKG agency stated the quake occurred at a depth of 168km, with its epicenter located on land, approximately 11km northeast of Simalungun.
The earthquake followed a 7.7 magnitude quake that struck the eastern Indonesian island of Flores, followed by two strong aftershocks measuring 5.6 and 5.9 in magnitude, resulting in at least 38 casualties. The Pulau Pinang bomb squad reported receiving several reports of the tremor between 7:23 pm and 7:27 pm, and sent teams to monitor the situation at various locations.
The department clarified that the tremor was reported to have been felt in the South West and East Coast areas, as well as in Seberang Perai.
