Following a magnitude 7.5 earthquake off the eastern coast of Aomori Prefecture, Japan issued its first-ever megaquake advisory for 182 municipalities from Hokkaido to Chiba. The advisory, lasting one week, urges residents to prepare for immediate evacuation. While some elderly care facilities report readiness, others express uncertainty in responding.

A magnitude 6.7 earthquake struck off Aomori Prefecture on December 12, following the 7.5 quake that prompted Japan's first megaquake advisory. The Japan Meteorological Agency issued a tsunami advisory for Hokkaido and Tohoku coasts, with waves up to 1 meter possible, urging people to avoid the ocean amid ongoing regional risks.
