Update 10:56 UTC : ER expects not to hear from any damage from this earthquake, mainly because it happened in a jungle area without roads and very few villages. Additionally M6.6 is not very spectacular for PNG who gets regularly M7+ earthquakes. Houses in the jungle have also a lot of resistance against earthquakes
