6.2 Earthquake - 271 km WSW of Tual, Indonesia

"A very strong magnitude 6.2 earthquake occurred in the Banda Sea 142 km (88 mi) from
Indonesia in the early morning at 2.53 am local time (GMT +9). The quake had a moderate depth of 146 km (91 mi) and was felt widely in the area.
For most people (93.3%), the quake might only have felt as barely noticeable or weak shaking if at all (intensities I-III). Approx. 10,200 people were in areas with light shaking (intensity IV), the highest intensity this quake likely produced over inhabited areas." VD
