An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.2 has rocked eastern Indonesia, meteorologists say.
The tremor struck south-west of Manokwari, West Papua, at 0443 on Sunday (1943 GMT), the US Geological Survey said.
A tsunami alert has been issued by the local geophysics agency.
The Indonesian archipelago straddles several continental plates where seismic and volcanic activity is recorded on an almost daily basis.
