oastal regions from Chile to the western US were on edge after a powerful earthquake in Russia’s Far East triggered a tsunami that rippled across the Pacific, though warnings in Hawaii and Japan were downgraded.
Chile, hit by a major earthquake and devastating tsunami in 2010, is implementing coastal evacuation protocols in high-risk areas. Senapred, which is in charge of disaster risk management, declared a red alert Wednesday for tsunamis for municipalities along the continental coastline.
