On January 1, 2024, at 4:15 pm - local time, a powerful earthquake with a magnitude of 7.6 on the Ritcher scale (according to the JMA, Japan Meteorological Agency), triggered from a depth of 10 km, hit Japan.
The Epicenter was located in the north-northwest of Suzu, Noto Peninsula, Ishikawa Prefecture, but regions such as Tokyo and Yokohama also suffered shocks.
This, already called the 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquake, is being considered the largest since the Ogasawara earthquake in 2015.
In addition to houses and buildings that collapsed, other buildings were destroyed by fires. More than 30 thousand homes were left without power.
CROWS
Minutes before the earthquake, the population of the region observed thousands of crows flying in groups or gathering on top of buildings or even on the ground, on the streets, as at Kyoto city.
Some researchers believe that birds can "hear" hurricanes and tsunamis arriving before humans do, and videos of crows recording bird activity in Japan support the theory.
