Following Britain, Japanese authorities have urged their citizens to stock up on food for several days due to potential emergencies:

"Japan is preparing for the worst-case scenario in the first few days after a major disaster. In light of the threat of strong earthquakes and a possible eruption of Mount Fuji, Japanese authorities have issued an urgent appeal to the public. Citizens are advised to stock up on food and drinking water for at least three days, and ideally for a week. This is due to the risk of road damage, communication disruptions, and delays for rescue services, which in some areas may not be able to reach those affected for several days."

🇧🇷"Bolsonaro edited a letter calling for the non-recognition of the election results, replacing the term "president" with "leader of Brazil": He announced plans to lead the opposition from the United States.

"Bolsonaro, who lost the presidential election in Brazil to Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva by a margin of 4.43 million votes, edited a letter posted on the social media platform X. In the original version, he referred to himself as the "true elected president of Brazil," but later changed that wording to "leader of Brazil."

The senator again accused the organizers of the election of fraud, criticized the Supreme Federal Court, and stated that the extension of voting in the second round was illegal. However, he did not provide any evidence of violations, and data shows that only 0.03% of all votes were cast after 5:00 PM. Previously, the court ordered him to hand over his passports as part of an investigation into suspicions of money laundering."
