JAKARTA - A strong and shallow earthquake with a magnitude of 6.1 struck central Indonesia on Friday (Sept 28), geologists said, but no tsunami warning was issued.

The quake was centred around 18km deep, just off the coast of Sulawesi island, the US Geological Survey said.

There were no immediate reports of damage and Indonesia's meteorology, climatology and geophysics agency (BMKG) said there was no risk of a tsunami.
