One killed, dozens injured in Bengkulu earthquake

JAKARTA (JP): One person died and dozens were injured following a powerful earthquake in Bengkulu on Wednesday evening.

Elshinta radio station reported that the person was killed after a building collapsed, while others were luckier as they were only wounded.

Earthquake felt in four countries

JAKARTA (AP): A powerful earthquake off western Indonesia triggered warnings of a potentially destructive tsunami across much of the Indian Ocean region Wednesday, meteorological agencies said. It caused tall buildings to sway in at least four countries.

Some people in high-rises in neighboring Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand also felt the quake.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center issued a tsunami warning for wide areas of the region.

"Earthquakes of this size have the potential to generate a widespread destructive tsunami that can affect coastlines across the entire Indian Ocean Basin," it said, warning that waves could hit Indonesia and Australia within an hour.

Sri Lanka and India could be struck within three hours, it said.
