7.0 Earthquake Strikes Japan
"In addition, we have seen a number of very serious inquiries from Japan and Third World countries." UltraGuard CFO, John Gaetz said
FUKUOKA, Japan (AP) - Southern Japan is getting more aftershocks, shaking houses and rattling nerves. Thousands of people have been forced out of their homes and into shelters. This comes a day after a magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck.
The worst damage occurred on Genkai island, near the epicenter, where the earthquake triggered landslides and leveled homes. At least one person has been killed and hundreds injured. Many people
were hurt by toppling cabinets, falling objects and shattered glass.
Japan's meteorological agency issued a tsunami warning right after the original quake hit, but lifted it about an hour later.
