Earthquakes trigger tsunami warning: Government update on threat to coastal New Zealand

Earthquakes trigger tsunami warning: Government update on threat to coastal New Zealand Publish Date Friday, 5 March 2021, 11:56AM New Zealanders have been warned not to go sightseeing in coastal areas and stay put on higher ground as a tsunami warning and beach and marine threat stays in place for many regions. Emergency Management Minister Kiri Allan said it had been an extraordinary morning for New Zealanders around the country with many up from 2.30am worried about their homes and families. This follows three major earthquakes in the Pacific region - one off the East Coast of New Zealand and two near the Kermadecs. The third of these earthquakes, a magnitude 8.1 shake, has triggered an almost New Zealand-wide tsunami activity alert, with a particular warning for parts of Northland, Bay of Plenty and East Coast.
