A 6.7 magnitude earthquake struck in the Pacific Ocean early Tuesday off the coast of the Philippines, the US Geological Survey said.
The US Tsunami Warning System did not issue any alerts and there were no immediate reports of significant damage or injuries following the earthquake.
The earthquake struck at a depth of 70 kilometers (43 miles) about 100 kilometers from Sarangani at the tip of the southern island of Mindanao, the USGS said.
Earthquakes are a daily occurrence in the Philippines, which sits along the Pacific Ring of Fire, an arc of intense seismic and volcanic activity that stretches from Japan through Southeast Asia and across the Pacific basin.
