A 7.2 magnitude earthquake struck Taiwan early Wednesday morning, officials said.

The earthquake caused several parts of the capital city of Taipei to lose power.

Japan issued an evacuation advisory for coastal areas near Okinawa after the earthquake triggered a tsunami warning.

The US National Tsunami Warning Center said it is “analyzing the event to determine the level of danger” for Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California and British Columbia.
