Description

A devastating 7.1 magnitude earthquake struck Japan’s Kyushu island, collapsing part of a shopping mall and trapping 20–30 workers, while rescue teams scramble amid power outages, fires, and halted transport. Though a tsunami warning was briefly issued, it was quickly lifted, and major infrastructure remains intact—though nuclear plants are under watch. Residents recall the 2016 quake that killed over 50, fueling fears of renewed catastrophe. Bullet trains, rail lines, and Aso Kumamoto Airport are grounded as military aircraft survey the damage. Authorities warn of possible aftershocks and urge caution as recovery efforts begin.
