An offshore quake struck 140 kilometres northeast of Tokyo today morning, shaking tall buildings in Japan’s capital, but authorities did not issue a tsunami alert.
There were no immediate reports of damage or casualties.
The quake off coastal Ibaraki prefecture — one of many aftershocks since Friday’s massive 8.9-quake — had a 5.8-magnitude, said the US Geological Survey, which said the quake struck at a depth of 18 kilometres.
