Tsunami waves arrived in Okinawa and other parts of Japan on Monday after an earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 7.8 struck off the southern Philippines, according to Japanese and US authorities.
The Japan Meteorological Agency said at a press conference that a minor tsunami was observed in the main island of Okinawa at around 12.18pm (10.18am Thailand time) after the agency issued a tsunami advisory for the Pacific coast along the eastern, western and southern parts of the country.
