A strong earthquake
late Saturday struck a mountainous area of central Japan that hosted the
1998 winter Olympics, knocking down at least 10 homes in a ski resort
town and injuring more than 20 people, officials said.
The
magnitude-6.8 earthquake struck near Nagano city shortly after 10 p.m.
(1300 GMT) at a depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles), the Japan
Meteorological Agency said. The U.S. Geological Survey measured the
quake's magnitude at 6.2. Since the quake occurred inland, there was no
possibility of a tsunami.
The April, 2011,
Fukushima earthquake (Japan) was 6.6.
