In a recent advisory video, NHK WORLD-JAPAN emphasizes the importance of immediate evacuation in the event of an earthquake near coastal areas, due to the risk of tsunamis. The video provides guidance on how to seek safety, including moving to higher ground or the roofs of sturdy buildings, and stresses the need to remain in a safe location until tsunami warnings are lifted.
- If you feel a tremor near the ocean, evacuate immediately without waiting for tsunami warnings.
- Move away from the shore and seek higher ground or the roof of a tall, sturdy building.
- Once you’re safe, use your phone or radio to check for tsunami updates.
- Tsunami waves can occur repeatedly, so even if they appear to have stopped, do not return to at-risk areas.
- Remain in a safe location for the duration of the active tsunami warning.
