A magnitude 6.7 earthquake has struck Japan’s north-eastern region, according to the Japan Meterological Agency, APA reports, citing BBC.
It happened at 11:44 local time (02:44 GMT) at a depth of 20km (12.4mi), and was followed by several smaller quakes.
The agency has issued a tsunami advisory for parts of Japan's eastern coast, warning that the waves could reach up to one metre (3.3ft).
Today's earthquake comes after a magnitude 7.5 quake struck the same region earlier this week, injuring dozens of residents.
