Doha: An earthquake measuring 6.2 on the Richter scale struck north of Sulawesi Island in Indonesia Wednesday.

According to Qatar News Agency, the Indonesian Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency reported that the earthquake was located 71 km west of the Bone Bolango Regency of Gorontalo Province, at a depth of 103 km.

Indonesia is regularly exposed to earthquakes due to its location on the Pacific Ring of Fire, where many tectonic plates meet and cause frequent volcanic and seismic activity.
