Indonesia experiences new quake
A 5.7 magnitude earthquake struck western Flores Island in Indonesia on Thursday morning, with its epicenter located 32 kilometers northeast of Roteung at a depth of 10 kilometers. This came five days after a powerful 7.7 magnitude quake that resulted in the deaths of 68 people, injured around 1,200 others, and damaged thousands of homes. The area continues to experience seismic activity, with more than 235 aftershocks following the main quake. Fortunately, there have been no reported casualties or material damages so far. This ongoing seismic activity is part of the continued pattern of earthquakes affecting the Indonesian archipelago, which frequently experiences tremors following the previous devastating quake.
