According to the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), an earthquake with a magnitude of 7.0 rocked Indonesia’s Bali Sea region on Tuesday.

Earthquake in the Bali Sea
According to the Reuters article, the USGS estimated the magnitude to be 7.1. The epicenter of the quake at Bangsal, West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, was about 525 kilometers beneath the surface.
The US Tsunami Warning System reported that there were no tsunami dangers associated with the earthquake that occurred deep beneath the seafloor.
Because of its comparatively vast depth below the surface, the earthquake’s strength may have been moderated, making it appear milder than it was.
According to the first seismic data, the earthquake shouldn’t have caused any serious damage, but many individuals in the epicenter’s vicinity likely felt a light vibration.
