Nuku Alwafa-Sana
An earthquake measuring 6 on the Richter scale struck today in the ocean off the Kingdom of Tonga, but no injuries were reported.
According to the European Seismological Center, the quake struck at a depth of 180 km, 51 km from the capital of Tonga Nuku Alofa.
The region has witnessed daily seismic activity since the eruption of an underwater volcano in Tonga last month, which led to the formation of tidal waves (tsunami) that destroyed a number of distant islands.
