A magnitude 7.1 earthquake shattered southwest Japan, collapsing the Aeon Mall in Kumamoto and triggering a frantic five-day rescue operation that saved five lives and recovered seven bodies — with all mall victims now accounted for. But the toll widens: 34 confirmed dead, over 100 injured, and still missing across the prefecture. Elsewhere, a factory chimney collapse killed nine workers. Sweltering heat and water shortages plague tens of thousands, while 9,000 displaced people huddle in overcrowded shelters. Thousands of troops and rescuers persist in search efforts as the government vows to rebuild — not leaving anyone behind.
