5.2 quake hits near Fukushima, day after destructive 6.3 tremor
A 5.2-magnitude earthquake hit the Pacific coast of Japan’s Fukushima prefecture and the surrounding area, causing powerful tremors felt as far away as Tokyo.
The quake struck at 1:25pm (UTC), about 70 km from the city of Iwaki in Fukushima prefecture, according to the US Geological Survey. The epicenter of the quake was recorded at a depth of 50 km off the coast of Japan in the Pacific Ocean.
No tsunami warning was issued following the quake. No damage has been reported at the Fukushima Daichi and Daini nuclear power plants, according to plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO).
The tremor comes in the wake of a powerful 6.3-magnitude quake that jolted western Japan on Saturday, injuring at least 23 people and damaging over 1,000 houses.
