PETALING JAYA: The Foreign Affairs Ministry has called on Malaysians in Japan to remain vigilant following a tsunami advisory issued after a powerful offshore earthquake near Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula early Wednesday morning.
The 8.7-magnitude quake triggered tsunami warnings for Japan’s Pacific coastal regions, with waves of up to 3m expected to reach areas including eastern Hokkaido, the Boso Peninsula, the Ogasawara Islands, and parts of Shizuoka, the Kii Peninsula and Miyazaki Prefecture.
