900 Earthquakes Shake Japanese Island in 2 weeks

The Tokara islands in southern Japan have been experiencing an extraordinary series of earthquakes. Over 900 tremors have shaken this remote island chain in just two weeks, causing great concern among the 700 residents.

The constant shaking has left many islanders anxious and sleep-deprived. One resident described the experience as 'very scary,' saying it feels like the ground is always moving. The earthquakes are particularly unsettling at night, with some people reporting strange noises from the ocean before the quakes hit.

While no significant damage has been reported, the unusual frequency of these tremors has prompted authorities to advise residents to prepare for possible evacuation. The situation is complicated by the islands' remote location, with the nearest hospital being at least six hours away by ferry.
