A 6.9-magnitude earthquake struck off the southeast coast of Taiwan Monday morning, the United States Geological Survey said.

The earthquake hit at 10:59 a.m. Taiwan Standard Time, and was centered 170 miles east-southeast from the coast of Taitung, located in southern Taiwan. The earthquake’s magnitude was not enough to trigger a tsunami warning, the country’s Central Weather Bureau said.

“There is no tsunami warning at this time,” a scientist at the weather bureau said. The scientist, who did not want to identify himself, also said that his office had not heard of any immediate damage as a result of the earthquake.

The Associated Press reported that buildings swayed in Taipei, the capital, when the earthquake hit but that there were no immediate reports of casualties or damage.
