A magnitude 7.1 earthquake has devastated southwestern Japan, killing 23 people and leaving thousands displaced as rescue teams race against time to find survivors trapped under rubble. Homes, a factory, and a shopping mall in Kashima were destroyed, with the mall alone claiming six lives after an explosion and building collapse. Many are now sleeping in shelters without power or water, while officials scramble to account for missing residents. Despite strict building codes, older structures proved especially vulnerable. Recovery efforts are underway, but hope is fading with every passing hour.
