7.2 earthquake hits off Papua New Guinea
An earthquake of magnitude 7.2 struck off Papua New Guinea on Thursday, the US Geological Survey reported. This is just two days after a 7.4-magnitude jolt shook the southern coast.
The quake, which struck 150km southwest of the town of Arawa, appears to be relatively shallow. No tsunami warning has been issued and there have been no immediate reports of damage or casualties, Reuters says.
