After the powerful 7.6 magnitude earthquake that struck northeastern Japan, Japanese authorities reacted quickly, declaring a state of emergency and putting all state security mechanisms into operation.
Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, in an urgent statement to the media, announced that immediate measures have been taken to control nuclear power plants located in the earthquake-hit area. She said that so far there have been no reports of radioactive leaks or damage to critical infrastructure, but warned that verifications are continuing meticulously.
"We have activated the emergency response team and are working in cooperation with local authorities. The safety of citizens is our absolute priority," Takaichi declared.
According to preliminary information, nuclear power plants in Aomori and Miyagi prefectures are under constant supervision by technical teams and scientists from the atomic energy agency.
This rapid response also reflects lessons learned from the 2011 Fukushima disaster, which has left a deep mark on energy policy and emergency protocols in Japan.
Meanwhile, aftershocks continue to be felt in the Hachinohe area and the surrounding coast, while authorities have warned citizens to stay away from the coastline due to the risk of small tsunami waves.
