So far, the Albanian Embassy has reported no deaths or major damage. However, the earthquake injured several people, and the Embassy wished them a speedy recovery.

Meanwhile, the Albanian Embassy in Tokyo has urged Albanian citizens living in Japan and those visiting the country to follow official updates closely. It also called on them to comply with instructions from Japanese authorities.

In addition, the Embassy advised citizens to monitor information from the Japan Meteorological Agency, Japan’s disaster-prevention authorities and NHK WORLD-JAPAN.
