SYDNEY, July 25 (Reuters) - A strong earthquake with a
magnitude of 6.6 struck off northern Sumatra in Indonesia on
Wednesday, the U.S. Geological Survey said, and there were
warnings that a local tsunami was possible.
The Hawaii-based Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there
was no threat of a widespread, destructive tsunami after the
quake, about 330 km (205 miles) southeast of Indonesia's Banda
Aceh, but said there was a "very small possibility" of a local
tsunami.
