The New Year hasn’t been welcoming for Japan as the two consecutive days of 2024 have brought 2 consecutive disasters for the country. On January 1, 2004, over 7.5 magnitude quake triggered Tsunami in the coastal regions of
Japan and today’s plane burning incident came as a fresh frightening experience.
Tsunami waves left huge population of Japan’s coastal region displaced from their residence while many lost lives in the catastrophe.
