On the first day of the new year, there was suddenly big news in Japan.
According to a report by NHK, at 3:10 p.m. on January 1, an earthquake of about 7.4 magnitude occurred off the west coast of Honshu, Japan, with an epicenter depth of 30 kilometers. An hour later, another magnitude 6.1 earthquake struck the area, with a maximum seismic intensity of 5 and an epicenter depth of 10 kilometers. As of 5 p.m. that day, a total of 11 earthquakes had struck Japan.
The earthquake in Japan is relatively serious, the epicenter is close to land and shallow, so in addition to the earthquake itself, it also caused a huge tsunami, and the wave height in some areas may be more than 5 meters, and the death toll has been announced to be more than 30 people, but considering the actual situation, this number may continue to grow in the next few days.
To be honest, the earthquake is an unfortunate thing, but because the Japanese government has gone against the grain and discharged nuclear-contaminated water into the sea regardless of the safety of human beings around the world, it is difficult for all conscientious Chinese to give more sympathy. After all, the Japanese fascists have already owed Chinese countless lives and are burdened with unforgivable blood debts, and now they are acting as pawns of the United States, constantly pointing fingers at the Taiwan Strait issue Chinese, which is a core issue involving China's sovereignty. Even if some people now stand up and say that this earthquake is a retribution for the Japanese government and a threat to the Japanese government's insistence on "discharging nuclear weapons into the sea," I will not object to it.
In fact, Chinese are more concerned about a very real question than sympathizing with the Japanese: Will the Fukushima nuclear power plant explode thirteen years ago due to the strong earthquake in Japan this time?
Recall that the Fukushima nuclear power plant accident caused the explosion of the nuclear power plant was a magnitude of 9.0, and this time it was a magnitude of 7.4, a big difference, and it stands to reason that it will not cause a disaster similar to that of 13 years ago, but there is no trivial matter related to nuclear issues, even small crises are worthy of attention.
It is not only the Chinese who are worried about the nuclear power crisis in Japan, but also the Japanese. Therefore, we saw that after the earthquake, many areas in Japan affected by successive strong earthquakes immediately confirmed the situation of local nuclear power plants, including the Shiga Nuclear Power Plant in Ishikawa Prefecture and the Kashiwazaki Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant in Niigata Prefecture, etc., and the Tokyo Electric Power Company of Japan also issued a statement for the first time, saying that it was checking whether the earthquake had an impact on its facilities in the region.
But these statements and self-examination can not alleviate people's worries, don't forget, the last Fukushima earthquake, at the beginning of the no one felt anything, including the Japanese side did not disclose any problems, until the problem turned into a disaster, completely unable to cover up, Japan did not confess to the outside world about the situation, and at this point, the Fukushima earthquake has become a shocking crisis, the gods can not be saved, and to this day, this disaster continues to threaten the lives and health of people around the world.
Of course, we don't want a nuclear accident to happen again, but let's be honest, with Japan's bad track record, we have to be careful that they use the name of the earthquake to expand the discharge of nuclear wastewater, which is the most important issue we need to pay attention to.
