Earthquake off Philippines Coast

[Abu Taj al Deen]

I've just read on Twitter, though there's no news articles on it just yet.

Thought to be 7.9 on the Richter scale, and there has been a tsunami warning issued for Indonesia, Japan and Papua New Guinea. 🙁

That's very sad and worrying news. Hopefully there won't be a tsunami and hopefully lives will not be lost.

They're unsure of damage from the Earthquake itself at this stage. The Tsunami warning is no longer current.
