02.08.2026 ⇢ The Day the Quake's Heat Claimed Its First Disaster-Related Death
⌨
The Kumamoto earthquake's aftermath dominated editorial priorities as the death toll rose to 38, with the first confirmed disaster-related death from heatstroke—a 70-year-old woman found in a stopped car. NHK, Yomiuri, and TBS led with this development, while Sankei and Asahi highlighted evacuees' struggles with extreme heat and power outages. By midday, the Mainichi Shimbun reported on the quake's rupture process, and TBS noted a 2-year-old boy found safe in Okayama after going missing. The yen's intervention faded from headlines, replaced by the humanitarian crisis. Prime Minister Takaichi's cabinet support dropped to 59.2% in a JNN poll, and Trump called off a planned large-scale attack on Iran. By evening, coverage focused on heatstroke warnings and the first disaster-related death, cementing the quake's toll as the day's central narrative.
