Three moderate earthquakes respectively hit East Nusa Tenggara, North Sumatra and North Maluku in Indonesia Saturday evening, but there was no report of casualties or material damage. An earthquake measuring 5.0 a the Richter scale hit Kupang of East Nusa Tenggara province on Saturday midnight. Another earthquake measuring 5.3 magnitude jolted Mentawai in North Sumatra province earlier on October 12. Then an earthquake measuring 5.3 magnitude hit North Maluku province. It struck Ternate also on Saturday. So scary 3 earthquake jolt Indonesia in a week.
