A 6.0-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Indonesia's Java island Saturday, the United States Geological Survey said, but no tsunami warning was issued. The quake hit at a depth of 82 kilometres (50 miles), about 45 kilometres southwest of Malang city in East Java. There were no immediate reports of casualties, but the temblor shook Malang, a city of several million people. "It was pretty strong and went for a long time," resident Ida Magfiroh told AFP.
