WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A magnitude 6.4 quake struck east of India's Andaman Islands and triggered a local tsunami warning, the U.S. Geological Survey and Pacific Tsunami Warning Center reported on Monday.
World | Natural Disasters
The USGS said the quake struck at 1:21 a.m. on Tuesday (3:51 p.m. EDT on Monday) 75 miles east of Port Blair at a depth of 79.4 miles.
"Earthquakes of this size sometimes generate local tsunamis that can be destructive along coasts located within a few hundred kilometers (miles) of the earthquake epicenter," the tsunami warning center said.
