东京——日本气象厅说,静冈县西部发生5.7级地震,震中位于滨松市滨北区附近(北纬34.9度、东经137.7度),发生时间为当地时间11月8日凌晨1时04分(协调世界时11月7日16时04分),震源深度约40公里。美国地质调查局测定的震级为5.5级、震源深度约38.1公里。
日本气象厅没有发布海啸预警。静冈县及周边多地有明显震感,日本政府在首相官邸危机管理中心启动应急响应、收集灾情信息。美国地质调查局就此次地震发布绿色警报,评估造成人员伤亡与经济损失的可能性较低;截至发稿时,未有人员伤亡或重大损失的报告。
气象厅提醒震区及周边居民注意后续余震。震中所在的滨松市是静冈县西部最大的城市,滨北区位于该市北部。
