Japan Issues Tsunami Advisory After 5.9 Magnitude Earthquake Near Izu Islands

The advisory affects remote islands south of Tokyo following an undersea quake linked to volcanic activity, with no immediate reports of damage or injuries.

Japan's Meteorological Agency issued a tsunami advisory for the Izu and Ogasawara islands after a 5.9 magnitude earthquake struck offshore.
The earthquake, potentially triggered by volcanic activity, occurred near the uninhabited Torishima Island at a depth of 10 kilometers.
Tsunami waves up to 1 meter are expected, with a 50 cm wave already detected on Hachijo Island.
Residents on the affected islands did not feel the quake, but were alerted to the tsunami advisory.
No damage or injuries have been reported, but authorities urge coastal residents to remain vigilant.
