Fresh Earthquakes Strike Disaster-Hit Indonesia

Earthquakes continued to rattle Indonesia Tuesday, with fresh tremors registered in disaster-wracked Sulawesi and in another island to the south, according to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The latest jolts come four days after a powerful quake and tsunami claimed at least 1,234 lives, officials say.

Tuesday's quakes struck in rapid succession early in the morning.

In Sumba, an island of 750,000 people, the jolts began just after 7 a.m. local time.
