Japan’s prime minister has said the country is facing a 'battle against time' to rescue those affected by a series of major earthquakes that have reportedly killed at least 48 people, injured dozens and sparked fires that destroyed homes.

One thousand army personnel have been dispatched to the worst-hit area in the country’s relatively remote Noto peninsula, but rescue operations have been hindered by badly damaged and blocked roads and one of the area’s airports has been forced to close due to runway cracks. A 7.6-magnitude earthquake hit the west coast of Japan, triggering huge waves and land fires.
