Japan Earthquake
An earthquake of magnitude 7.2 has beaten the coast of Japan, shaking buildings in the capital, Tokyo, and triggering a small tsunami.
The quake was centered 168 kilometers (104 miles) from the east coast, northeast of Tokyo.
A 60 cm (24 inches) by the tsunami reached the coastal city of Ofunato, with other smaller cities reporting waves shortly after the earthquake at 1145 (0245 GMT).
There is so far no reports of damage or injuries.
Japan is well prepared for earthquakes that often plague the area seismically active.
An aftershock of 6.3 magnitude struck after the main quake, the Japan Meteorological Agency said, followed by a series of smaller aftershocks.
Some train services in the area were temporarily suspended after the quake, but resumed shortly after noon.
Tohoku Electric Power said its Onagawa nuclear plant was operating normally after the earthquake and Tokyo Electric Power also said its power supplies were not affected.
