A powerful magnitude 6.7 earthquake has struck northern Japan, affecting Hokkaido and Tohoku regions and prompting tsunami warnings along the Pacific coast. Residents near the sea and rivers are urged to move inland immediately for safety. Small tsunami waves have already been recorded, though nuclear facilities, including Fukushima Daiichi and Daini, report no abnormalities. The quake comes just days after a magnitude 7.5 earthquake hit northern and eastern Japan, intensifying fears of further seismic activity.
