Arab weather - Sinan Khalaf - terrifying scenes reported by the media, for a moment, the "mud tsunami" swept into residential and vital neighborhoods in the city of Atami, Shizuoka Prefecture, in central Japan, sweeping away what was there and wiping it off the map.

 

In the details, the torrential thunderstorm wave that hit the city of Atami, Shizuoka Prefecture, central Japan, on Saturday morning, caused massive landslides that resemble a tsunami in their movement and destructive power, which is very similar to a tsunami.

 

 

 

For its part, the Shizuoka prefectural government said that two bodies had been recovered from the wreckage so far, and 10 people who were seeking help from the buildings were rescued.

 

Arab Weather learned that the mudslide occurred around 10:30 a.m. local time (1:30 a.m. GMT), which resulted in a large amount of mud flowing about two kilometers toward the sea, and policemen, firefighters and others continue their search and rescue operations.

 

 

 

The site of the mudslide is about 1.5 kilometers north of Atami Station. The Shizuoka Prefectural Government has set up a disaster response headquarters. Japan's Ground Self-Defense Force has sent about 200 soldiers to the affected areas at the request of the prefectural government.
