    Solomon Islands tsunami warning lifted after powerful 7.8 quake

    • 14 minutes ago


    A tsunami warning has been lifted in parts of the South Pacific following a powerful earthquake off the Solomon Islands.
    The 7.8 magnitude quake struck about 70km (43 miles) off Kirakira, according to the US Geological Survey.
    It said it had occurred at about 17:40 GMT (04:40 Friday local time), followed by many aftershocks.
    Phones and electricity went down in some areas, but there were no immediate reports of damage.
    Users on social media said some places were being evacuated, with people moving to higher ground.
    Social media reports suggested a wave of around 20cm in the capital.
    Minor sea level fluctuations may continue in the next few hours, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said.
    The Solomon Islands are located in the so-called "Ring of Fire" in the Pacific, a zone of major seismic activity which has one of the world's most active fault lines.
