"A magnitude 5.7 earthquake occurred near 194 km SW of Labuan, Indonesia at 05:41 PM
UTC. This shallow earthquake originated at a depth of 10.0 kilometers below the Earth's surface. 1 person reported feeling this earthquake to the USGS. The earthquake was detected by 84 seismic monitoring stations operated by the USGS. The mww magnitude measurement indicates this was a moment magnitude event, which is appropriate for earthquakes of this size and depth. Earthquakes of magnitude 4.5 to 5.9 are classified as moderate earthquakes by the USGS. This event contributes to our understanding of seismic activity in the region." VD
