Japan is being hit by a massive earthquake at the time of the writing of this report.  Bridges collapse into the ocean.  Boats and cars loaded with passengers just fall into the waters.  Nearby, some buildings catch fire.  Complete buildings, offices and homes are floating away.  Japan news agency reports that there are a lot of injuries and deaths.  Where there was dry land does not exist anymore

Tsunami watches are going on Hawaii, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Taiwan, Guam, Indonesia, Russia, Marshall island, and many other countries.  The island of Panjou on which Japan is located is hit by a major tsunami.  The debris and water of the tsunami are traveling far inland.  Tsunami waves are predicted to be higher.

It is predicting that the tsunami will cause many deaths inland.  A building on fire is moving with the tsunami.
