The centers of the quakes were at the depth of 10 kilometers, 38 kilometers, and 37 kilometers southwest of Ambon.

"Since Tuesday night until today at 11 am, it is recorded that as many as 88 quakes occurred in Ambon," he said Wednesday, Nov. 1.

The quakes were caused by the rising fault in the south of the island. According to Andi, the fault is still active and potential to cause tremors. It is recorded until today at 2 p.m. local time, a 3.1 magnitude quake hit Ambon.

The quakes left a number of buildings damaged, including the wall and ceilings of Pattimura Airport and Maluku City Mall.
