日本福島縣近海發生7.4級地震,4人死亡

A 7.4-magnitude earthquake hit eastern Japan late Wednesday night, killing at least four people and injuring over 100 others, and cutting power to millions of homes. One of the people who died was a man in his 60s who lived in the city of Soma, the local disaster prevention office said on Thursday. The quake hit off the coast of Japan's eastern Fukushima prefecture, a region devastated by a powerful quake and tsunami 11 years ago that resulted in a nuclear power plant meltdown.

周三深夜,日本東部發生7.4級地震,至少4人死亡,100多人受傷,數百萬戶家庭斷電。當地防災辦周四表示,遇難者中有一名住在索馬市的60多歲的男子。本次地震襲擊了日本東部福島縣沿海地區,該地區在11年前的強烈地震和海嘯中被摧毀,那次地震導致了一座核電站的熔毀。

The quake was originally designated 7.3-magnitude, but was upgraded to 7.4 on Thursday. A tsunami advisory was issued after Wednesday's quake for the coastal prefectures of Fukushima and Miyagi, but was lifted on Thursday morning and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida later said "no abnormalities" had been detected at any of the country's nuclear plants.

地震最初被定為7.3級,但在周四被升級為7.4級。周三的地震後,沿海的福島縣和宮城縣發布了海嘯警報,但在周四上午解除預警。日本首相岸田文雄後來表示,日本的任何核電站都沒有發現異常情況。

The quake had a preliminary epicenter depth of 60 kilometers (37 miles), said Japan's Meteorological Agency. It warned of tsunami heights reaching up to 1 meter above normal tidal levels, with the initial waves reaching shore around midnight local time (11 a.m. ET). About an hour and a half after the earthquake struck, an 8-inch tsunami occurred along the coastline of Japan's Miyagi prefecture, according to the agency, which urged people in affected areas to stay away from the coast.

日本氣象廳稱,地震的初步震中深度為60公里(37英里)。它警告說,海嘯高度將比正常潮位高出1米,最初的海浪在當地時間午夜(美國東部時間上午11點)到達海岸。日本氣象廳稱,地震發生大約一個半小時後,日本宮城縣沿海地區發生了8英寸高的海嘯,並敦促受災地區的民眾遠離海岸。
