JAPAN EARTHQUAKE UPDATE: Japan is on high alert after a powerful 6.6-magnitude earthquake struck offshore, prompting tsunami warnings for northern coastal areas. Authorities have urged residents to stay away from the shore as waves up to one metre could strike at any moment. The quake, occurring around 5:03 PM local time, recalls the devastating 2011 earthquake and tsunami that killed over 18,500 people and caused the Fukushima nuclear disaster. Japan’s location along the Pacific “Ring of Fire” makes it highly prone to seismic activity, with thousands of quakes occurring annually. <br /> <br />#JapanEarthquake #JapanTsunami #TsunamiWarning #6_6Magnitude #JapanDisaster #SeismicAlert #JapanNews #EarthquakeAlert #TsunamiAlert #NaturalDisaster #Fukushima #RingOfFire #JapanCoast #JapanSeismology #JapanSafety #JapanCrisis #PacificRingOfFire #JapanShake #JapanQuake #JapanEmergency #JapanBreakingNews #JapanTremor #JapanDisasterAlert #Japan6_6Quake #JapanOffshoreQuake #JapanTsunamiThreat #JapanEarthquakeUpdate #JapanPreparedness #JapanNaturalDisaster #JapanDisasterNews<br /><br />Also Read<br /><br />Tsunami Alert: How They Are Formed and the Science Behind Giant Waves :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/tsunami-alert-how-they-are-formed-and-the-science-behind-giant-waves-7815317.html?ref=DMDesc<br /><br />Japan Issues Warning: Megaquake Could Kill 300,000, Trigger Massive Tsunamis :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/japan-issues-warning-megaquake-could-kill-300-000-trigger-massive-tsunamis-4110429.html?ref=DMDesc<br /><br />7.4 Magnitude Earthquake Hits Taiwan: 4 Killed, Tsunami Warnings Issued | What We Know So Far :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/7-4-magnitude-earthquake-hits-taiwan-tsunami-warnings-issued-3790277.html?ref=DMDesc<br /><br /><br /><br />~HT.410~GR.124~
