Magnitude 7.3 earthquake hits Japan off Fukushima coast | DW News

- A magnitude 7.3 earthquake struck northeastern Japan, off the coast of Fukushima, on Saturday night. More than 130 people have been reported injured and some 860,000 homes are without power. The Meteorological Agency believes this was an aftershock from the massive earthquake that hit the region in 2011.
The initial quake was followed by a series of aftershocks.
Back in 2011, a similar earthquake in the same region triggered a tsunami. That caused a severe nuclear accident. The Fukushima nuclear power plant had a meltdown that leaked radiation into the atmosphere and the Pacific Ocean. The clean-up from that disaster will likely take another 30 to 40 years.
Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga has dismissed worries that Fukushima's nuclear plant could suffer a new leak from this latest quake.
As residents began cleaning up the aftermath, officials are calling on people to remain on the alert for further aftershocks in the coming weeks.

The "similar earthquake" 10 years ago was a 9.0 earthquake. Which is luckily very rare. 7.3 is bad enough.
Is a log scale... I can’t believe a channel this large does this kind of comparison
Isn’t a 9.0 like 30 times worse than a 7.3? Just guessing off log scale. Lol
@@MobileAura 9.0 is goin to become very common very soon.
Heads up.
The government plan is to sink Japan.
@@faustinae3927 lol why do you people attribute earthquakes to the government?
They can’t do anything regarding quakes, fracking only goes so far and there is no fracking there, they also can’t generate mega quakes either, this is a Divine moment that’s approaching and whatever comes no one is ready for.
The governments have no idea how to prepare so they will hide in the rocks and caves and mountains and whatever comes then oh well.
Destruction aside, it’s redemption for the people of GOD and the sinners because he doesn’t come for the saved, he comes for those that DO NOT KNOW HIM OR BELIEVE.
That’s what is going to happen.
Right before the quake happened my phone kept shouting earth quake earth quake earth quake!!! And then the quake happened at first I was calm but the quake was different from the quakes that happened before it lasted for 2 minutes. And japan has built such a good system that no matter what kind of a disaster happens there is hundreds of companies in each district that would start working the very next day to fix the problem, it is not like other countries which will wait for weeks before someone pays them then they could start working.
Yeah country with a lot of earth quake realy is ready with this type of situation
My couantry get alot of earth quake too im from the philippines but not like your country our respond to this situation sucks althou. And i hope japan will be ok again ilike anime thats why i worry about the japanese
Are u in Japan
I did nothing after receiving phone alert just 4,5 sec before quake. can do nothing in that shot time
meaning you have an alert system that works.
I literally only heard about this cause of the episode of Attack on Titan hope people in Japan are safe
Same
same, hope no casualties be safe japanese people
Same

Keep safe ⛑️
Mina baby
Too bad that there is earthquakes there too
@@anthonymarcelino8460 yeah, but earthquakes in japan is much worst. We experiences earthquakes (twice per month I think) but it's not huge earthquake, we experiences only the shallow one ☺️
Moro gulf tsunami and quake
i experienced the earthquake but fortunately i am okay thanks for caring!
We are praying for Japan. The Japanese people have passed through a lot of natural disasters. The Romanians support you. You have always proved your capacity of facing the catastrophes in an admirable way. Take care. Stay safe!
Hello Mami @Felisa Dinu

Hello there, how are you doing today?
Still no death at all? Amazing
Hope you are all safe and hang in there. We love you from Arizona.
One death confirmed. Still very low for an earthquake of this magnitude and intensity.
I feel so sad for those who suffered from the earthquake. Praying for Japan 🙏🇯🇵 from South Korea 🇰🇷

Hoi! I am in South Africa too!
'An aftershock of another earthquake that happened 10 years ago.' I can't get my head around that.
Im thinking the same thing...how is this even scientifically possible??!
The way humans perceive time relative to their own life spans is what makes it seem so unbeleivable. A shift in positions of tektonic plates is gradual. It can take millions of years for them to settle into set positions.
There is no definitive way for humans to accurately mark when plates start and stop shifting. We can only analyze the effect after and while they take place.
@@centeguahan3760 How is it not scientifically possible?! 10 years is absolutely nothing on the geologic time scale on which tectonic plates move. Especially with a 9.1 magnitude earthquake it takes time for the diplaced crust to adjust and aftershocks will continue to occur, though with decreasing frequency.
@@ClimateDude k
It means that the tectonic plates are still shifting and earthquakes that can be a lot more stronger can happen again.
We, Indonesia pray for Japan. Hope everything will be okay very soon. When I visited Japan (Hiroshima) 3 years, I found that Japanese are so kind.

How could you NOT have flashbacks to almost 10 years ago when they had that quake, and the terrible tsunami that followed! I'm sure a lot of people over there have PTSD after that one 10 years ago.
Pray for Japan & Ebisu Circuit 🇯🇵 From Malaysia 🇲🇾
At least there's wasn't a tsunami this time
But the quake is still strong.
I hope this doesn't age like milk
@@OnlyGrafting this time the epicenter was under land and not sea so we should be in the clear. Last time it was under the ocean hence the displaced water i.e. wall of destruction.
@@destituteanddecadent9106 Correction, it’s under gray matter (similar to dark , just grey)
Wait til the bigger ones come.

Hello there, how are you doing today?
Hello Donalyn
I'm in the USA and we pray for you guys. I hope our Country help you guys. You guys are the Best. May God protect you guys.
Thank you very much. Here in Tokyo, the quake was not that big compared to the big one 10 years ago,
but we have had small quakes, but it has been a long time since I felt a big quake.
@Ömęřţå_ Đøń83 Because of the depth of the epicenter of the earthquake, no tsunami occurred. However, the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) has warned people to be careful in the future.
@Ömęřţå_ Đøń83 Thank you.
Thank you!

Japan are efficient and resilient. They'll clean and fix all this in no time.
The DW report stated that clean up after the previous Fukushima quake/tsunami that damaged the nuclear reactor will take 30-40 •years• No quick fixes for radioactive contamination, no matter how resilient people are. I wish them good luck.
@@elliottswanson9307 Exactly --- also the silos filled with radioactive water were leaky anyway -- they dismissed any questions on Fukushima daichi power plant b/c that is the single biggest threat to life in Japan
Sadly, Fukushima will take a lot longer. But certainly no where near as long as Chernobyl. Good luck to all of them.
@my BMW naniiii????
Praying for Japan from Phillippines. We admire your resilience.
Almost 10 years to the day when Japan had that catastrophic earthquake and tsunami....Sending prayers and love from Canada.
Japan: "Oh not again."
Earthquake: "round two!"
The Tohoku Earthquake 10 years ago hardly killed anyone, it was the tsunami that killed most of the people. This was a 9.1 earthquake off the coast but we were lucky there wasn't a tsunami. There were only a few people hurt, some damage of mostly things falling off shelves, but no died and no buildings collapsed. Overall the Japanese do a really great job building for earthquakes.
PRAY FOR 🇯🇵 .. from 🇲🇾
Thank you for your support. I’m half Japanese and we appreciate it!
Im praying for them and others.
Aftershock after 10 years? What kind of logic is this?
Aftershock simply means the displaced crust adjusts to the effects of the main shock. It can take for decades.
To the earth, 10 years is only a trivial time.
@@taekatanahu635 Yes, right. Just this is very rare. I wasn't surprised that it took 10 years, I was shocked that the aftershock after 10 years can be that strong.
@@user-ul7sl5pd7k People seem to forget this.
Was it on the same subduction zone?
Oh, my God 😥 Hopefully there is no disaster, may God protect us all.
This is just sad...a natural disaster in the midst of a pandemic is the last thing that any nation should be dealing with. My thoughts and prayers are with the people of Fukushima. I remember watching the Fukushima earthquake on TV 10 years ago...(I was 15 then) cried a lot that day. I had come back from school and turned on the TV wanted to watch some music videos, was scrolling through channels and saw on the news one of the most horrific things I have ever seen... cars, people, houses everything getting destroyed within minutes...its just so sad....
Japan certainly doesn’t need this on top of the Covid, stay safe everyone
Japan has very little covid cases, life is pretty much normal on that front.
@@rampager1990 they also have longest living people, fewest diseases and vaccinate the least.
I hope Japan recovers quickly and people help each other out. I love Japan
AMEN

Ten year old after shock? Maybe it in the beginning of the 11 year cycle.

Thanks to the people in this comment section,
from Japan🇯🇵
Pray for Japan, no more earthquakes, pray for everyone’s safety in Japan, Amen.
You can pray for the people because the Japanese know there danger of earthquakes but Japan sits on the boundary of multiple major tectonic plates. Prayer won't stop those massive forces.
Luckily Japan has decent earthquake protection. If you notice yes there are objects in the houses that are thrown around but unlike for instance America their houses are still standing. What I am trying to say is I hope everyone recovers but also I am impressed with Japans ability to actually prepare for earthquakes compared to other parts of the world
Stay strong people of Japan.
I'm sorry to hear that. Be safe!

They’re calling this an aftershock 10 yrs later? Come on!
Hello kitty
Aftershocks can even happen 20-50 years after a big enough quake. Time means nothing when you are comparing it to how long the earth has been around. 10 years is actually a really small amount of time for an aftershock
That earthquake straight up was just a reminder, how cruel is mother earth
We Indians love you Japan
We will always stand with our brothers 🇮🇳❤️🇯🇵
Every 10 years, Japan often hit by powerful earthquake.
I literally only know about this earthquake cuz of attack on titan I hope everyone is okay praying for Japan love from america
Lol me too but hope they r ok.

@@KINGOFTHEWORLD888 🙏🙏
They make it up as they go along.
How come that an aftershock will occur ten years after a big quake? It's quite puzzling and I don't know either.
Because geological time is measured in hundreds of thousands of years.
Ten years is nothing.

So basically it's expected that Japan gets a massive earthquake once every 9 - 10 years.
Kumamoto and Hokkaido had really nasty quakes in 2016 and 2018 respectively that had more intensive shaking and destruction. They're not on a cycle.
@CIA There's also rumor that Califoria is going to have extremely big earthquakes, which should be more in your concern. Japanese people are nice and I'm sure they'll manage the earthquake very well
@CIA On the contrary, I don't hate Americans at all, and I'm just making a statement that resembles to what you've just said. I have both friends from Japan and from the states and I don't particularly love Japan either. Though I know in Japanese there is a phrase called read the air. Sir you certainly lack the ability to read the air to avoid yourself saying that such things
I just heard this news from attack on titan. Unfortunately the episode stopped here, however I pray so that everyone in Japan is safe. It is indeed heartbreaking to recieve this kind of news, as it happened to my country too here in Malaysia. A mountain that we never expect to quake did actually happened during those past few years. And it scares me to death 😭 I pray so that everyone are safe from this tragedy. God bless 🙏🏻
My grandson is a Marine on a Navy ship patrolling around Japanese waters. I also pray for you all in Japan for safety now and in the future. From the USA.
