ニュースの記事（英語／日本語）
An earthquake with a maximum intensity of 7 struck the Noto Peninsula facing the Sea of Japan on New Year's Day, and according to the tally on the 3rd, the number of casualties has risen to 73. Surpassing the Kumamoto earthquake, it has become the most severe damage since the Great Hanshin Earthquake. The town of Anamizu in the Oku Noto, the epicenter, surrounded by mountains and the sea, recorded a strong 6 on the seismic scale, turning the entire town into an isolated island, with many houses collapsing. Due to road damage, there were long queues at gas stations, and fuel shortages became critical. The residents of Anamizu town awaited rescue, expressing relief at the arrival of rescue teams and ambulances.
日本海に面した能登半島で発生した最大震度7の地震が元日に襲い、3日の集計によれば死者は73人に上った。熊本地震を超え、阪神大震災以来の被害となった。震源地の奥能登の穴水町は山と海に囲まれ、震度6強を記録し町全体が孤島のようになり、多くの家屋が崩れた。道路破壊により給油所での長蛇の列ができ、燃料不足が深刻だ。穴水町の住民は救助を待ち望み、救助隊や救急車の到着に安堵の声を上げていた。
