A powerful earthquake strikes western Indonesia / Here's what the magnitude

A magnitude 6.6 earthquake struck a small island northwest of Sumatra in Indonesia on Sunday, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) said, but authorities said there were no immediate reports of damage.

The quake was centered on Simeulue Island and had a focal depth of 15 miles (25 kilometers). The U.S. Geological Survey said there was no threat of a tsunami.

Indonesia is often shaken by earthquakes as it is located on the Pacific "Ring of Fire", a zone of strong seismic activity where tectonic plates intersect and which stretches from Japan through Southeast Asia and along the Pacific Ocean basin. /CNA
