"The findings in Teinaman Village, North Tanimbar District, earthquakes with a magnitude of more than 7 resulted in the emergence of piles of materials to form islands," said Head of Teinaman Village, North Tanimbar District, Bony Kelmaskossu when contacted from Ambon, Antara, Tuesday, January 10. This phenomenon caused the entire community of Teinaman Village to panic and be afraid so that they temporarily evacuated. "The policies taken, we direct the public to evacuate temporarily," said Bony Kelmaskossu. He hopes that the government and related technical agencies will follow up on the phenomenon that occurred in the village. The Coordinator for Data and Information at the BMKG Class I Geophysics Station in Ambon, Luthfy Pary stated, regarding the island phenomenon that appeared in Teinaman Village, his party could not provide more details because a more in-depth study was needed. A term similar to this phenomenon is known as a volcano mud, but needs a more in-depth study. "The information we have obtained is incomplete whether the phenomenon is purely caused by the impact of the earthquake or not, so far we have not received accurate information," he said. A tectonic earthquake with a magnitude of more than 7 occurred in the early hours of Tuesday. The epicenter of the earthquake is located at coordinates 7.37 ° LS; 130.23 ° BT, or precisely located at sea at a distance of 136 km northwest of West Southeast Maluku, Maluku at a depth of 130 km. By paying attention to the location of the epicenter and the depth of the hypocenter, the earthquake that occurred was a medium-sized type due to the subduction activity of the Banda Sea.
