An earthquake of magnitude 6.9 struck the Kermadec Islands region in New Zealand recently
About Kermadec Islands:
They are volcanic island group in the South Pacific Ocean, 600 mi (1,000 km) northeast of Auckland, New Zealand.
They are a dependency of New Zealand.
The islands are a volcanic island arc, formed at the convergent boundarywhere the Pacific Plate subducts under the Indo-Australian Plate.
They are the tiny emergent part of a chain of submarine volcanoes that define the Kermadec ridge.
They are uninhabited, except for Raoul Island where a team of Department of Conservation staff carry out weed control work and make meteorological observations.
