On January 1, a massive earthquake measuring 7.6 on the Richter scale, with a maximum seismic intensity of 7 observed in Wajima City and Shika-machi, Ishikawa Prefecture, caused large-scale building collapses, landslides, fires, road damage, and major damage to lifelines such as water supply and sewerage systems, mainly in various parts of Noto Peninsula. In addition, coastal areas were hit by tsunami, and in the northern part of Noto Peninsula, there was a 4-meter elevation. In addition to recording photos of the complex disasters that hit areas where aging and depopulation were progressing, this book captures the whole picture of the disaster by recording reports by reporters of the Hokkoku Newspaper and commentaries by experts.
