A 7.0 magnitude earthquake hit southern Japan's Kyushu Island early Saturday morning local time in virtually the same location as Thursday's deadly, damaging 6.2 magnitude foreshock.
Residents are slowly trying to piece their lives back together, but officials say that as many as 1,500 have been injured and 180,000 are without shelter.
The US military said it is getting ready to provide aerial support for Japan's relief efforts. The U.S. has major Air Force, Navy and Marine bases in Japan, and stations about 50,000 troops in the country.
