Hazardous tsunami waves are possible along coastlines within a 300 kilometer radius of a 6.9-magnitude earthquake that hit south-eastern Taiwan on Sunday, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) has said.
Japan's Meteorological Agency has issued a tsunami warning for Miyako island in the East China Sea following the quake, which hit the Yujing district in rural Taiwan and had a depth of 10 kilometers.
Photos showed collapsed buildings in southern Taiwan following the powerful earthquake. The USGS initially registered it at 7.2, before downgrading it to 6.9.
