Amman: A 7.5-magnitude earthquake struck western Japan on Monday resulted in tsunami alerts that extended as far as eastern Russia and prompted a warning to locals to flee impacted coastal areas of Japan as quickly as possible.

The Japan Meteorological Agency immediately issued a tsunami warning along coastal regions of western Japan.

Houses were also rocked by the earthquake, with images showing collapsed roofs and shaken foundations.
