The 7.6 magnitude earthquakes caused chaos along Japan's west coast, leading to casualties, structural damage, and heightened concerns of more tremors. A fire and collapsing buildings on Honshu, the main island, triggered the highest-level tsunami alert. The alert was eventually lifted.

Ishikawa prefecture, especially Wajima city, faced ongoing aftershocks, resulting in eight deaths and seven critically injured individuals.
