Earthquake cases are rapidly increasing all over the world instead of decreasing. While earthquakes occur somewhere or the other every day, and that too more than once, some countries face frequent earthquakes, and Japan is included among them. Today, Friday, September 20, an earthquake struck Japan once again. This earthquake struck Volcano Islands, and its magnitude on the Richter scale was 5.2. The earthquake struck today at 10:43 am according to Indian time. Japan's Geophysics Agency today also confirmed this earthquake.

The depth of the earthquake that happened in Japan today was 97.3 km.

People in the affected area, along with some nearby areas of Japan, felt the tremor due to this earthquake in Japan today. However, this earthquake did not result in any damage.

Earthquakes are growing all over the world. Some earthquakes do not cause damage, but in the last few months, some earthquakes have been seen that have caused huge destruction. Earthquakes in Turkey, Syria, Morocco, Afghanistan, Nepal, and China also caused destruction last year. The earthquake which occurred on January 1 this year in Japan has also caused destruction. Likewise, on March 24th, the quake in Papua New Guinea has also caused damage. There was also some destruction in Taiwan due to an earthquake on April 3. Not all earthquakes cause destruction, but the increase in these cases of earthquakes is a matter of concern.
