An earthquake measuring 5,6 on the Richter scale shook buildings in Tokyo early this morning.

The quake, which struck at 00h30 local time, was centred about two kilometres west of Iwai, Japan.

The operations of some train lines were temporarily suspended, including the Shinkansen bullet train in the northeastern Tohoku region.  

There were a few minor injuries and damages reported, but no tsunami warning was issued.
