Indonesia issues tsunami alert after 7.7 quake

A 7.7 magnitude earthquake struck near Flores Island in Indonesia, triggering a local tsunami warning and causing residents to evacuate to higher ground. Several aftershocks followed, and authorities warned people to stay away from beaches and riverbanks. The USGS estimates that approximately 500,000 people experienced strong shaking, with potential for damage, though no casualties or specific damage details have been confirmed. Indonesia’s location on the seismically active Ring of Fire makes it prone to such earthquakes and tsunamis.
