Strong quake hits Japan's Hokkaido, no tsunami danger

TOKYO: A strong earthquake on Friday (Oct 5) jolted the same area of Japan's northernmost main island of Hokkaido that was hit by one of the country's most powerful tremors last month.

The quake, which struck at 8.58am (7.58am Singapore time), had a preliminary magnitude of 5.3, and measured a "weak 5" on Japan's quake intensity scale of 1 to 7, with 7 being the strongest, Japanese broadcaster NHK said.

There was no danger of a tsunami from the quake, it said.
