More than 150 injured in strong Fukushima earthquake

The cleanup is underway from a 7.3-magnitude earthquake off Japan’s eastern coast. The tremor came nearly 10 years after a huge quake that sparked a tsunami and nuclear meltdown.

The clean-up operation in Japan continued Sunday after a powerful 7.3-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of eastern Japan during the night.

Around 150 were injured, according to officials. Most injuries were reported in the quake-prone Fukushima and Miyagi prefectures, close to the epicentre. But tremors were felt as far as capital Tokyo. (DW)
