An earthquake of 5.9 magnitude on Monday morning shocked the North-central region of Ishikawa, Japan after a devastating quake affecting the country on January 1.
The Monday earthquake in Japan has been reported to cause no damage, but a recurring quake happened within the next two hours.
The Meteorological Agency of Japan reported no casualties and said there was no threat of Tsunami as no life-threatening injuries were recorded.
The JMA seismology and tsunami official Satoshi Harada said the earthquake was believed to be an aftershock of the magnitude 7.6 quake on Jan. 1.
Seismic activity has since slightly subsided, but Harada urged people to be cautious, especially near buildings that were damaged earlier.
