Jakarta, July 25 -- Indonesia's National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB) reported on Friday that several residents in Poso, Central Sulawesi, remained outside their homes following a 6.0-magnitude earthquake on Thursday evening, fearing potential aftershocks.

"As of now, there have been no reports of casualties. However, data collection is ongoing due to power outages and communication disruptions in several areas," said Abdul Muhari, head of BNPB's Data, Information, and Disaster Communication Center, in Jakarta.

Preliminary reports indicated that one house was destroyed near the epicenter, while three others sustained minor damage in the villages of Tokilo and Tindoli in Pamona Tenggara and Pendolo in Pamona Selatan.
