A magnitude 7.3 earthquake struck west of Indonesia’s Sumatra Island on Tuesday, Indonesia’s geophysics agency (BMKG) said, triggering a tsunami warning for around two hours.

The tsunami warning, asking local authorities to immediately instruct residents of the affected area to move away from shores, has since been lifted.
