Japan 'megaquake' warning lifted says Disaster Minister

Japan lifted on Thursday a week-old warning that a "megaquake" could potentially strike, the country's disaster management minister said.

"The special call for attention has ended. But it doesn't mean the risk (of a major earthquake) has been eliminated," Yoshifumi Matsumura told reporters.
