Residents across Japan's southwestern Kumamoto Prefecture cleared piles of debris and damaged belongings on Saturday following a powerful magnitude 7.1 earthquake that struck the southern island of Kyushu. Search and rescue operations officially concluded at the site of a deadly shopping mall collapse in Kashima, as the prefectural death toll rose to 34 with nearly 100 people injured. Thousands of displaced survivors faced harsh conditions in crowded evacuation shelters and vehicles amid severe water shortages and punishing summer temperatures reaching 33 degrees Celsius (91 degrees Fahrenheit). Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi pledged full military and agency coordination to secure emergency water supplies as officials assess over 1,500 damaged structures across the region. #japan #earthquake #kumamoto #kyushu #yatsushiro #uki #breakingnews #topnews #usnews #worldnews #japannews #disasterrecovery In this Times Now World News report, we break down the this topic: Stay conne
