Japan's meteorological agency says there were a total of 61 aftershocks recorded following today's initial earthquake. It says these ranged from one to six in seismic intensity. For comparison, after the 2016 earthquake in Kumamoto that injured more than 1,000 and killed over 40 people, it says that quakes with a seismic intensity of seven quakes took place over two days.
