"The Haneda Airport plane collision came just one day after a powerful and tragic earthquake hit Japan's Noto Peninsula. The series of earthquakes beginning January 1 caused a minor tsunami, fires, and major infrastructure damage in various parts of Ishikawa Prefecture. At least 62 people have been killed, per the AP. Rescue efforts for survivors remain underway. The Noto Peninsula, a rural coastal region of Japan over 300 miles northwest of Tokyo, is less visited by international tourists but is home to attractions including the historic Tokikuni Residences, the Sojiji Temple, and Wajima City."
