A 7.1-magnitude earthquake has been reported off the coast of Indonesia.

JAKARTA, INDONESIA, December 10, 2012 (AP): The U.S. Geological Survey says the quake struck offshore Tuesday morning, with the epicenter 147 miles (236 kilometers) northwest of the city of Saumlaki. The quake was reported at a depth of 96 miles (155 kilometers). The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said it was not issuing a tsunami warning because the quake was too deep to trigger a tsunami in the Indian Ocean. The quake hit at 1653 GMT (1-53 a.m. Tuesday local time). Indonesia is located in the Pacific “Ring of Fire,” where earthquakes and volcanic activity are common.
