    US: M4.8 Earthquake Strikes New Jersey 2

    A 4.8-magnitude earthquake hit about 4 miles north of Whitehouse Station in Hunterdon County, New Jersey, on Friday, April 5, at 10:23 a.m. EDT. The quake was felt across the New York City metropolitan area and parts of Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. That makes it the strongest quake on record in the area, at least since USGS data began in 1957. USGS said a light aftershock with a preliminary magnitude of 4.0 struck near Gladstone, New Jersey, at 5:59 p.m. This video shows the moment of the quake during an NBA DFS show on the Stokastic YouTube channel.

      Japan marks 11 yrs since quake disaster, Fukushima crisis

      Japan on Friday marked the 11th anniversary of the earthquake and tsunami that devastated its northeastern region in 2011, with evacuation orders in more parts of areas contaminated by the Fukushima nuclear crisis expected to be lifted later this year. Residents in the severely affected prefectures of Fukushima, Iwate and Miyagi observed a moment of silence at 2:46 p.m., when the massive quake struck the region more than a decade ago and prayed for those who lost their lives. As the central government no longer hosts a memorial service, municipalities in the affected northeastern areas of the Tohoku region held theirs on a smaller scale, with Prime Minister Fumio Kishida attending a ceremony held in the city of Fukushima. "We will make utmost efforts for the reconstruction of Tohoku," Kishida said in the service attended by around 200 people. "We will promote building of a disaster-resilient nation by constantly reviewing measures to prevent and mitigate disaster damage and protect people's lives."
