Tokyo(CNN) A strong earthquake hit the Japanese city of Osaka during morning rush hour Monday, killing at least five people and injuring 214, Japan's government says.
The 5.3 magnitude quake shook Osaka, on Japan's main Honshu Island, around 8 a.m. Monday local time (7 p.m. Sunday ET) according to the US Geological Survey (USGS). The Japan Meteorology Agency put the magnitude at 5.9. It rated the quake at "6 Lower" on its JMA Seismic Intensity scale, meaning the shaking would have been severe enough to make it difficult to remain standing.
The Osaka Prefecture Office of Emergency Management updated the death toll to five early Tuesday after a 66-year-old man was found buried by books at his home in Takatsuki city, north of Osaka city.
A nine-year-old girl was killed after becoming trapped by a damaged wall in a swimming pool facility at her school, also in Takatsuki city.
An 81-year old woman was found crushed by a closet in her home, and two elderly men also died, including an 85-year-old man trapped by a damaged block wall in Yodogawa-ku, and an 80-year-old man who was crushed by a falling bookshelf at his home in Ibaraki.
At least 214 people were hurt, according to Japan's Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga.
The injured were located across a number of prefectures in the south of Honshu island, local officials said.
Several roads suffered severe damage and water pipes burst, sending water flowing onto streets in Takatsuki city where the biggest shock was felt. A total of 334 buildings across four prefectures in western Japan -- the bulk of which were in Osaka -- were damaged in the quake.
Nearly 700 people were in evacuation centers, local broadcaster NHK said.
Several train services remained suspended across Osaka Prefecture on Monday afternoon, causing major travel delays, although bullet trains resumed service about six hours after the quake.
Kansai Airports, the company which operates the airport in Osaka, says 82 flights departing and arriving there have been canceled throughout the day due to the quake. There's no damage at the airport.
According to Osaka prefectural office, homes in northern Osaka are without water and the supply of gas has been cut to 108,000 households
Some 170,000 homes suffered temporary power outages, which were resolved within hours after the quake, according to Kansai Electric co.
Meantime, on the other side of the Pacific, a 5.6 magnitude quake struck near Guanagazapa in Guatemala's Escuintla province just after 8:30 p.m. local time (10:30 p.m ET) Sunday, according to the USGS.
There were no immediate reports of injuries or serious damage, according to CONRED, the government agency for disaster reduction.
Both Japan and Guatemala are situated on the Ring of Fire, an area of intense seismic and volcanic activity on both sides of the Pacific Ocean.
The 40,000-kilometer (25,000-mile) area stretches from the boundary of the Pacific Plate and the smaller plates such as the Philippine Sea plate to the Cocos and Nazca Plates that line the edge of the Pacific Ocean in a horseshoe shape.
