Coverage aligns on 7.8 magnitude earthquake and tsunami threat; Yahoo Japan initially reported M8.2 before convergence on 7.8.
Yahoo Japan initially reported the earthquake as magnitude 8.2, while Deutsche Welle, Folha de S.Paulo, The Hindu, La Repubblica, CNA, and Japan Times settled on 7.8 magnitude. This minor discrepancy reflects real-time magnitude revisions common in seismic reporting rather than editorial framing difference.
All sources report tsunami warnings issued across the region and at least three deaths with building collapses. Deutsche Welle, Folha de S.Paulo, and The Hindu emphasize the threat to coastal populations and urging people to higher ground. CNA notes that Indonesia and Malaysia subsequently lifted tsunami warnings after initially issuing them.
