Indonesia was a peaceful country just few years back, but all that has changed in the last few years. The Tsunami that stuck the island few years back is still remembered for the deadly human life losses numbering over 200000 across the globe. Since then Indonesia has been troubled by earthquakes of varying intensities on a monthly basis.
Yesterday, the country was troubled by a 7.6 Richter scale earthquake just 30 miles off Sumatra coast, that killed over 15 people and injuring over 200. As per reports at least three big buildings including a hospital was brought down instantly by the deadly earthquake. The country has issued a Tsunami warning immediately after the earthquake. Complete death toll will be known only after few days.
