An earthquake registering a preliminary magnitude of 7.1 shook Kumamoto on Japan’s southern main island of Kyushu late on Tuesday (July 28, 2026) afternoon and a tsunami advisory was issued, the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) said.

The quake occurred at the depth of 10 km (6 miles) below the sea surface, JMA said.

No damage or injuries were immediately reported after the 4:29 p.m. quake.

The quake occurred in the western region of Kumamoto, about 900 km (540 miles) southwest of Tokyo.

The U.S. Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no risk of a tsunami beyond local coasts.
