Japan hit by aftershock

[Middlesbrough]

Japan has been rattled by a strong aftershock and tsunami warning nearly a month after a devastating earthquake and tsunami flattened the north-eastern coast.
The Japan meteorological agency issued a tsunami warning for a wave of up to one metre. The warning was issued for a coastal area already torn apart by last month's tsunami.
Officials say the new quake was a 7.4-magnitude and hit 25 miles under the water and off the coast of Miyagi prefecture. The quake that preceded last month's tsunami was a 9.0-magnitude.

Very unlucky for Japan. It's going to be years before they completely recover from this.

They'll find a way around it though, they found a way around the bombings and the land it inhabits. Japan are quite beastly, they'll be k and they've got plenty of support too. To be honest things like help to advance and shape the future. It's like a forest burning, it'll come back better.
