Ngokuvumelana ne IndonesiaI-Meteorology, Climatology, kanye ne-Geophysical Agency, ukuzamazama kulinganise u-6.2-magnitude.
Asikho isexwayiso se-tsunami esikhishiwe ngemuva kokuzamazama.
Isiqhingi esikhulu yeSumatra iyikhaya labantu abangaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-58. Akuzange kube nemibiko yokulimala kulandela ukuzamazama komhlaba, okuhlasele ngokushesha ngemva kwaphakathi kwamabili isikhathi sendawo (5pm GMT).

Itholakala endaweni ebizwa ngokuthi iPacific Ring of Fire - indawo emise okwe-arc esebenza ngokuzamazama komhlaba - Indonesia unyaka nonyaka kuzamazama izinkulungwane zokuzamazama komhlaba.
