Tokyo, July 23:
Japan’s Meteorological Agency said a strong earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.5 today jolted North-eastern Japan, the same region devastated by March’s massive quake and tsunami.
There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage from the quake, and no tsunami warning was issued.
The quake was centred 40 km below the seabed in the Pacific Ocean, off the coast of Miyagi prefecture in the same area where more than 22,000 people were killed or went missing after the March 11 quake and tsunami.
