Today, Thursday, the Japanese will revive the memory of those who died ten years ago in an earthquake and tsunami in northeastern Japan, which led to a nuclear disaster.
A memorial service for the victims is scheduled for later in the day, but the families of the victims have already begun their own ceremony.
An earthquake measuring 9 on the Richter scale struck Japan on March 11, 2011, and was followed by a tsunami that reached a height of ten meters, killing 15,900 people. And 2525 people were not found.
"We lost our friends because of this disaster, and also there are still people missing, I think we should never forget them," the Japanese broadcaster quoted a woman as saying.
A person from Minamisuma City, Fukushima Prefecture, recounted how he lost his grandparents, when the waves began to rush, so that he was unable to reach their home.
Then, a triple meltdown occurred at the nuclear power plant, which released nuclear radiation and made it impossible to search for them.
