Japan’s Tokara islands hit by 900 earthquakes in two weeks
No major damage has been reported in the Tokara island chain, Japan’s meteorological agency says
Tokara village said on its website that residents were tired as they had been unable to sleep. “It feels like it’s always shaking,” one resident told the regional broadcaster MBC. “It’s very scary to even fall asleep.”
Another said: “It’s not clear when all this will end. I should think about whether to evacuate my kids.”
Japan is one of the world’s most seismically active countries, sitting on top of four major tectonic plates along the western edge of the Pacific “ring of fire”.
