After a tsunami warning was issued for Japan's Naha Airport on Okinawa island, operations have now returned to normal as all flights to and from the airport have resumed. The airport's spokesperson confirmed that the warning had been downgraded, allowing for the resumption of regular flight schedules.
The small tsunami waves, measuring under 30 centimeters (11 inches), were triggered by an earthquake in Taiwan. While Okinawa felt the impact of these waves, they did not reach the airport itself. As a precautionary measure, flights were temporarily halted until the situation was deemed safe.
Hideaki Tsurudo, the airport's spokesperson, provided reassurance that the airport was not directly affected by the tsunami waves and that it was reopened promptly once the threat had passed. Passengers can now expect smooth travel to and from Naha Airport without any further disruptions.
Authorities are maintaining a close watch on the situation to ensure the safety and well-being of all individuals in the region. Travelers are advised to stay informed about any updates regarding potential risks and to follow instructions from local officials in case of emergencies.
