DID Press: A strong earthquake measuring 7.5 on the Richter scale struck northern Japan on Monday, prompting authorities to immediately issue a tsunami warning.
According to the Japan Meteorological Agency, the quake occurred in northern regions and was powerful enough to shake large buildings in Tokyo, located hundreds of kilometers from the epicenter.
Officials have urged residents in coastal areas to follow safety precautions and pay close attention to official advisories, as tsunami waves remain a potential risk following the earthquake.
So far, no confirmed reports of casualties or damage have been released, while assessment operations continue in the affected areas.
