Second deadly quake hits southern Japan, rescuers race against time

2016-04-16 13:05:21| Automakers - Topix.net

A powerful 7 point 3 magnitude earthquake struck southern Japan today, killing at least 16 people, injuring hundreds more and trapping people in collapsed buildings, barely a day after a quake killed nine people in the same region. Rescuers dug through the rubble of collapsed buildings and mud and debris today to try and reach those trapped, but continued aftershocks hindered rescue efforts and fuelled fears of more powerful quakes.
