印尼摩鹿加海发生地震并引发印尼北部小型海啸波，目前尚无人员伤亡或财产损失报告。
据美国地质调查局消息，这场7.4级地震于当地时间周四早些时候发生，震中位于北马鲁古省特尔纳特市西北偏西79英里处，震源深度22英里。
印尼气象、气候与地球物理局在地震发生后发布了海啸预警，但表示将对威胁等级进行密切监控。
不到半小时后，多个监测站记录到海啸波，其中比通市的海浪高度达8英寸，西哈马黑拉地区的海浪高度达1英尺。

檀香山的太平洋海啸预警中心表示，马来西亚、菲律宾、台湾和巴布亚新几内亚也可能出现小型海浪，但对夏威夷、关岛及其他更远岛屿不存在威胁。
印尼目前暂无直接的财产损失、受伤或死亡报告，当地减灾机构和印尼搜救机构尚未发布官方评估结果。
这场地震在北苏拉威西省沿海城市比通被强烈感知到，当地居民因恐慌纷纷从家中跑出。
“我们刚睡醒，地震突然就来了……我们全都跑出了房子，”居民马滕·曼达吉说道，“震感非常强烈。”
曼达吉表示他所在区域尚未发现任何损坏。“我们仍在检查是否有损失。但目前我们是安全的，没有人员伤亡或破坏情况，”他说道。
当局敦促沿海地区居民保持冷静、提高警惕，并在监控持续期间遵循官方指令行事。
印尼是拥有超过2.8亿人口的庞大群岛国家，地处主要地震断裂带上，因其位于太平洋盆地火山与断层带构成的“环太平洋火山带”，经常遭受地震和火山喷发袭击。
2022年，西爪哇省先贾尔市发生5.6级地震，造成至少602人死亡，这是自2018年苏拉威西省地震及海啸造成超过4300人死亡以来印尼最致命的地震灾害。
2004年，印度洋发生特大地震并引发海啸，造成12个国家超过23万人死亡，其中大部分遇难者来自印尼亚齐省。
Powerful 7.4 magnitude earthquake in Indonesia’s Molucca Sea sets off small tsunami

An earthquake in the Molucca Sea set off small tsunami waves in northern Indonesia, but no damage or casualties have been reported.
The magnitude 7.4 earthquake hit early Thursday local time and was centered 79 miles west-northwest of Ternate in North Maluku province at a depth of 22 miles, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
Indonesia’s Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency issued a tsunami warning following the quake, though it said the threat level remained under close monitoring.
Tsunami waves were recorded at several monitoring stations less than half an hour later, including in Bitung with a height of 8 inches and in West Halmahera with a height of a foot.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Honolulu said small waves were possible as well in Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan and Papua New Guinea, but there was no threat to Hawaii, Guam and other more distant islands.
There were no immediate reports of damage, injuries or fatalities in Indonesia, and local disaster mitigation agencies and Indonesia’s Search and Rescue Agency had not yet released official assessments.
The quake was strongly felt in Bitung, a coastal city in North Sulawesi province, where residents rushed out of their homes in fear.
“We had just woken up and suddenly the earthquake hit… we all ran out of the house,” resident Marten Mandagi said. “The shaking was very strong,”
Mandagi said he had not seen any damage in his area. “We’re still checking whether there is damage or not. But here we are safe, there are no casualties or destruction,” he said.
Authorities urged residents in coastal areas to remain calm, stay alert and follow official instructions as monitoring continues.
Indonesia, a vast archipelago of more than 280 million people, sits on major seismic faults and is frequently hit by earthquakes and volcanic eruptions because of its location on the “Ring of Fire,” an arc of volcanoes and fault lines in the Pacific Basin.
In 2022, a magnitude 5.6 earthquake killed at least 602 people in West Java’s Cianjur city, the deadliest one in Indonesia since a 2018 quake and tsunami in Sulawesi killed more than 4,300 people.
In 2004, an extremely powerful Indian Ocean quake set off a tsunami that killed more than 230,000 people in a dozen countries, most of them in Indonesia’s Aceh province.
