Kumamoto earthquake death toll hits 38

A strong earthquake with a magnitude of 7.1 struck Kumamoto Prefecture in Japan, resulting in 38 deaths, with the confirmation of two additional fatalities, damage to over 3,851 homes, and water supply cut off for 46,800 households. The first casualty related to the disaster was also reported—a elderly woman who died due to extreme heat. Relief and shelter efforts are ongoing, with 9,226 individuals being accommodated in 210 centers. It is noteworthy that Japan frequently experiences earthquakes due to its location on the "Ring of Fire." The 2011 earthquake with a magnitude of 9 caused the deaths of over 18,000 people and led to the Fukushima nuclear reactor leak.
