A STRONG 6.0 magnitude quake has shaken the Pacific island of Vanuatu, US monitors said today, a day after a bigger tremor triggered a small tsunami and sent thousands fleeing for the hills.
The quake hit at 2.35am (1.25pm AEST) at a depth of 41km, 75km west-northwest of Port Vila, the US Geological Survey said.
No tsunami warning was immediately issued.
Yesterday's 7.5-magnitude earthquake shook buildings in the city for about 15 seconds.
It did not appear to have caused significant damage, but the resulting minor tsunami triggered panic.
