A seismic event measuring 6.9 in magnitude resulted in extensive destruction in Papua New Guinea, with approximately 1,000 residential properties in the East Sepik province affected, with reports of three fatalities.

Governor Allan Bird mentioned the devastation of the 1,000 homes due to the earthquake, exacerbating the existing challenges posed by flooding in the province.
