A powerful 6.8 magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Japan earlier today, triggering a tsunami warning for several coastal regions. The earthquake, which struck at approximately 10:15 AM local time, was centered in the Pacific Ocean, around 100 kilometers southeast of Honshu’s Ibaraki Prefecture.

The tremor caused buildings to shake in Tokyo and surrounding areas, sending people fleeing into the streets in search of safety. No immediate reports of casualties or significant damage have been confirmed, but authorities are urging residents in tsunami-prone areas to remain vigilant and move to higher ground.

The Japan Meteorological Agency issued a tsunami warning, advising that waves of up to 3 meters could hit coastal areas within the next few hours. Emergency services have been dispatched, and evacuation procedures are underway in affected regions.

The earthquake comes just days after a series of smaller tremors were felt throughout the region, sparking concern among citizens. Japanese authorities are closely monitoring the situation and coordinating efforts to assess the damage and ensure public safety.
