#Japan:An earthquake of 6.1 magnitude has struck near Tokyo. The focus of the quake was in Chiba Prefecture east of Tokyo, at a depth of 80 kilometers. There’s no tsunami threat. According to the local media.
An earthquake measuring 6.1 on the Richter scale occurred in the northwest of Chiba County, Japan, and the earthquake was felt obviously in Tokyo 日本千叶县西北发生里氏6.1级地震，东京震感明显
A 6.1 magnitude earthquake has hit the Japanese capital of Tokyo.
Buildings swayed, traffic came to a standstill and residents were told to ‘take action to protect your lives’ as violent tremors rattled the city at about 10.40pm local time (1.41pm GMT).
But officials have reported no tsunami danger from the quake which was centred in Chiba prefecture, just east of Tokyo, at a depth of 48 miles.
Japan’s public broadcaster NHK said the quake registered a tremor of ‘5 plus’ on Japan’s own ‘shindo’ scale of quake intensity, jolting Tokyo and surrounding areas late on Thursday evening.
The strength of the quake could cause considerable damage to buildings and power cuts, and residents received an emergency warning to their phones advising them to take shelter.
The government of new Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has set up a taskforce to co-ordinate local authorities’ and emergency services’ response to any damage and injuries, with Kishida telling NHK the task force will ‘find out about the latest situation and provide information to the public in a speedy manner.’
Several bullet train lines were halted due to the quake, the broadcaster said, while Otsubo Bridge in Ichihara City in Chiba was closed after the tremors caused a water pipe to rupture.
The Tokyo Electric Power Corporation reported 250 cases of blackouts in the city.
‘Without doubt the strongest earthquake I’ve experienced in almost 5 years in Japan,’ tweeted nature photographer and videographer James Reynolds from Tokyo.
