Six years after the Quake

A powerful 7.3-magnitude earthquake has struck off the western pacific nation of Vanuatu triggering a small tsunami.

The quake hit exactly six years after giant waves killed more than 226,000  people in Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India, Thailand and nine other countries.

The set-up of the German-Indonesian tsunami early warning system went off to inform people in the area about the possibility of massive waves.

There are no reports of lives lost.
