The hypocenter lay relatively close to the surface at around 22 km, increasing how strongly it was felt. Shaking of this size is frequently noticed but usually harmless.
The data is provided by EMSC and cross-checked across seismological networks. Indonesia: 56 earthquakes were recorded in the past 24 hours, the strongest reaching M4.8.
Shallow quakes release energy near the surface — shaking is felt more strongly and damage potential is higher.
