Tokyo, Japan – An 8.9 magnitude earthquake, the strongest in 140 years, struck off the northeast coast Tuesday, devastating Miyagi Prefecture and triggering a massive tsunami that wiped out entire towns. Over 3,000 are confirmed dead, thousands remain missing, and millions are without power as hospitals and shelters struggle to cope. Fears of a radioactive leak at Fukushima have heightened global alarm, while international aid pours in. Despite the destruction, Japan’s people show resilience and solidarity as the nation faces a long road to recovery.
