6.9-magnitude earthquake hits northern Japan/M6,8 σεισμός σημειώθηκε στις 16.17 (ώρα Ελλάδος) στο νησί Hokkaido της Ιαπωνίας

A 6.9-magnitude earthquake has hit the coast of Hokkaido, Japan, the US Geological Service reports. Two nuclear power plants are in the affected area.
­The quake that occurred at 11:17 pm (14:17 GMT) was marked 5 upper at JMA Seismic Intensity in several places in Hokkaido.
According to the USGC, the epicenter of the earthquake was located at a depth of 120 kilometers.
Shaking could be felt near Hokkaido's capital Sapporo as well as in some regions of Tokyo, which is located down the island.  

 No tsunamis warning has been issued, and no damage or injuries have been reported.
Local public broadcaster NHK said nearby nuclear plants, Tomari and Higashidori, were observing any abnormalities.
Seismic activity in the region has increased in the past few days, and several smaller quakes have rattled the region.
Back in December a powerful 7.3-magnitude undersea quake off the northeast coast of Japan triggered a one-metre-high tsunami, but it caused no major damage.
One of the most devastating earthquakes and tsunamis in history hit Japan in March 2011 when 19,000 people died or were reported missing. The disaster damaged the Fukushima nuclear power plant leading to the world’s worst atomic incident for 25 years.

    Northeast Japan jolted by magnitude 5.9 quake

    By REUTERS
    05/18/2013 09:06
    TOKYO - An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 5.9 jolted northeastern Japan on Saturday, the Japan Meteorological Agency said.

    No tsunami warnings have been issued.

    The United States Geological Survey recorded the quake at 6.1, with a depth of 20.5 miles. The epicentre of the quake was off the coast of Fukushima prefecture, more than 200 km (125 miles) northeast of Tokyo, where buildings also shook

    The northeast was hit in March 2011 by a magnitude 9 earthquake that triggered a devastating tsunami.
