Japan Earthquake, April 11, 2011 at 7.1 magnitude | Japan alerted for tsunami!

Japan Earthquake Alert!!!

Japan was hit again by a powerful earthquake on April 11, 2011, exactly a month after the 9.0 earthquake which triggered a tsunami last March 11.

The new earthquake which happened at 5:16 PM, Monday, was measured by Japan Meteorological Agency as 7.1 magnitude earthquake with epicenter at Eastern Honshu, 50 miles away from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, where the workers were asked to evacuate according to a newsflash on CNN.

The US Geological Survery however measured the quake at only 6.6 magnitude.

Japan was alerted of a 3-foot tsunami, but the warning was later lifted.

Watch a video report from RussiaToday:


Four days ago, Japan was already hit by a strong earthquake which registered at 7.4 magnitude.

Three strong Japan earthquakes in just a month??? That's too much already!
