An earthquake of magnitude 6.2 was recorded off Japan's Chiba prefecture today at 7.03pm (2.03pm, UAE time).
The country's meteorological agency said the tremor was detected a depth of 50 kilometres off the eastern part of Chiba, jolting nearby areas including Tokyo.
No tsunami warning has been issued, according to the authorities.
A few weeks ago, a quake of a similar magnitude struck Ishikawa prefecture — killing one person and injuring 13 others.
