IndiaTimes Monday, 8 January 2024
The death toll from Japan's New Year's Day earthquake reached 161 as snow complicated relief efforts. More than 2,000 people are still cut off and lacking power or in crowded emergency shelters. Authorities reported 103 people missing after the 7.5-magnitude quake, which caused buildings to collapse, fires to break out, and triggered tsunami waves. The worst-hit Noto Peninsula suffered significant damage, with over 2,000 people still cut off due to road damage and landslides. The region is now dealing with heavy snowfall, making rescue operations even more challenging.
