Tsunami hitting Palu in Indoneshia after 7.7-magnitude quake

Jakarta: Indoneshia

A major 7.5 quake struck off the Indonesian island of Sulawesi on Friday, prompting a tsunami alert hours after a milder quake brought down houses in the same area, and officials expect further damage.

The warning was lifted within the hour, but officials asked people to remain on the alert as a number of moderate aftershocks hit.

"We advise people to remain in safe areas, stay away from damaged buildings," Sutopo Purwo Nugroho, spokesman for the National Disaster Mitigation Agency, said in a televised interview.
