Wellington:

On Wednesday, the US Geological Survey reported a 6.2-magnitude earthquake off the southern coast of New Zealand, near the mostly uninhabited Auckland Islands.

New Zealand monitoring agency GeoNet said the quake’s epicenter was 33 kilometers (21 miles) below the Earth’s surface. There was no immediate tsunami warning, and there were no reports of damage on the New Zealand mainland.

A city council official from Invercargill – the nearest big city – said there were no reports of an earthquake being felt there or damage to infrastructure.
