7.1 Magnitude quake strikes southwest Japan
A 7.1 magnitude earthquake struck southwest Japan, resulting in 13 deaths and causing extensive damage in Kumamoto Prefecture on Kyushu Island. Rescue teams launched search operations for survivors amid the rubble, and tens of thousands were forced to seek shelter due to the destruction caused by the quake, including building collapses, fires, and disruptions to water and electricity supplies affecting thousands. There were no direct damages reported at nuclear power plants, but many historical sites and structures were affected, with a noticeable impact on infrastructure and services. Japan is known for frequent seismic activity and is one of the most earthquake-prone countries in the world, due to its location at the intersection of four tectonic plates.
