A 7.3-magnitude earthquake hit western Indonesia on Apr. 25 around 3am local time (4am Singapore time), triggering a tsunami warning which lasted around two hours, according to the country's geophysics agency, BMKG.
As a result, a number of residents in Singapore claimed they had felt the tremor in their homes this morning.
For example, someone who lives in Marine Parade shared a video on Xiaohongshu showing the ceiling light in his flat, situated on the 18th floor, shaking throughout the 30-second clip.

In the caption, he added that he was awakened by the tremor at 4am today.
Initially, he thought he was hallucinating as he never thought he could have felt the tremor so clearly.
Another Xiaohongshu user, who lives in Boon Keng, also shared that she felt her flat was shaking when lying on her bed at 4:05am.
She said that she was so scared she decided to put on some clothes so that she would not need to evacuate her home naked in the event the situation worsened.

Reactions
Many online users responded to these posts, concurring that they sensed the tremor this morning as well, especially those living along the east coast.
