A 7.3-MAGNITUDE earthquake off Japan’s Fukushima injured dozens of people, authorities said today, nearly 10 years after the eastern region was hit by a huge quake that sparked a tsunami and nuclear meltdown.
Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga said no casualties had so far been reported after the late-night quake, which did not trigger a tsunami warning.
No abnormalities were reported at the Fukushima nuclear plant, which melted down in the wake of the March 2011 quake that triggered a towering tsunami and killed more than 18,000
