The 2009 West Java earthquake occurred on September 2 at 14:55 local time in West Java, Indonesia.〔("Magnitude 7.0 - Java, Indonesia - 2009 September 02 07:55:01 UTC" ) Earthquake Hazards Program, United States Geological Survey〕 The magnitude 7.0 earthquake killed at least 79 people, injured over 1,250, and displaced over 210,000 (including more than 140,000 in Tasikmalaya regency).〔("Korban Tewas Akibat Gempa Sudah 79 Orang" ) Kompas newspaper, Sept 8, 2009〕 The quake was felt in the capital Jakarta, although damage there was minimal, and it was Indonesia's deadliest earthquake since the 2006 Pangandaran earthquake and tsunami. ==Cause== The earthquake's focus lies close to the major fault plane where the Indo-Australian Plate is being subducted beneath the Eurasian Plate. However, the focal mechanisms determined for this event shows reverse faulting at a high angle to the trend of the subduction zone and it has been suggested that the cause was deformation within the descending slab.〔 Another earthquake in the same subduction zone occurred only 5 days later in the ocean south of Yogyakarta. This newer quake (magnitude 6.2)〔http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recenteqsww/Quakes/us2009lgba.php〕 is considered to be related to the West Java earthquake.〔http://regional.kompas.com/read/xml/2009/09/08/00310831%20/gempa.yogyakarta.terkait.dengan.gempa.di.jawa.barat〕
