A significant earthquake event occurred in Japan's Kyushu Island, with two major quakes happening in quick succession. The earthquakes caused damage to buildings and roads, and were strong enough to be felt in South Korea. Authorities issued a temporary tsunami warning, which was later lifted.

The quakes led to a chimney collapse at a paper factory, with several workers still missing. An explosion also occurred at an Aeon shopping mall, causing partial destruction of the building. Further details about the earthquake and its aftermath are available from Mission Network News, including information about the ongoing search for survivors and the extent of the damage.
