With a moment of silence, prayers and anti-nuclear protests, Japan is mourning about 20,000 victims of the massive earthquake and tsunami that struck the country 10 years ago, destroying towns and triggering nuclear meltdowns in Fukushima.
A minute's silence was observed on Thursday across the country at 2.46 pm local time (0546 GMT), the precise moment a 9.0 magnitude quake hit off the northeast coast on March 11, 2011.
