Moscow.  A powerful earthquake struck Russia’s far eastern Kamchatka Peninsula and Indonesia’s Central Papua region on Friday morning, triggering panic among residents. Both regions are in the Pacific Ocean’s ‘Ring of Fire’ and have experienced frequent seismic activity.

A 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) said. The quake struck 128 km east of the capital Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky and at a depth of 10 km. The Russian Geophysical Service put it at 7.4 on the Richter scale, putting it at least five aftershocks.

Videos shared on social media showed furniture inside the house, light fixtures and even cars parked on the street. The US Pacific Tsunami Warning Center warned of dangerous waves on the coast nearby, though the tsunami warning was lifted hours later.

“The resilience of the residents of Kamchat is once again being tested,” Gov. Vladimir Solodov said in a telegram. There are no reports of damage so far. An earthquake measuring 6.1 on the Richter scale struck Indonesia’s Central Papua province, the USGS said. The quake struck 28 km south of the town of Nabire at a depth of 10 km on the Richter scale of 6.6 km and a depth of 24 km, the BMKG agency said.

Indonesia has repeatedly experienced powerful earthquakes due to its active tectonic zone in the Pacific Ring of Fire. Coastal residents of Indonesia and Russia are at constant risk from this geological pressure that stretches across the Pacific basin from Japan to Southeast Asia.
