Nihon Terebi is running a 24-hour live stream for the Kumamoto Earthquake on YouTube. My heart and prayers go out to all those struggling with this appalling situation.

Thanks for posting this. All I knew before is what I saw in the headlines. This is so much more vivid.

You're welcome, ariariari. It's difficult for me to watch. The memories from five years ago are still fresh in my mind. You always know there's going to be another big earthquake at some point, but it's always a terrible shock when it happens.

Here's another current live YouTube stream. This time from Fuji TV.

Terebi Asahi also has a streaming page here: https://abema.tv/now-on-air/abema-news

Finally, you can follow NHK, though the stream goes on and off as and when they have reports: http://www3.nhk.or.jp/news/live/
