6.2-magnitude earthquake struck off North Sulawesi province in central Indonesia on March 14 at 01:56 a.m. local time (18:56 GMT on March 13). The earthquake's epicenter was located 128 km southeast of East Bolaang Mongondow Regency, with a depth of 10 km beneath the seabed. The country's meteorology, climatology, and geophysics agency did not issue a tsunami warning as the earthquake's impact would not trigger giant waves. Indonesia, situated within the Pacific Ring of Fire, is particularly prone to earthquakes due to its position in the vulnerable seismic zone.
