Breaking News

A 7.8-magnitude earthquake has shaken New Zealand, prompting a tsunami warning for parts of the Pacific Ocean.

The quake struck off the south-west tip of New Zealand, 161km (100 miles) west of Invercargill at a depth of 33km (20 miles), the US Geological Survey said.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Hawaii issued a "non-expanding regional tsunami warning" for nearby areas.

There were no immediate reports of damage or any evidence that a tsunami had formed after the quake.

The quake was detected at 0922GMT (2122 local time), reports said.
