Hundreds of thousands of survivors living in basic temporary shelters in the cold with little food could be at risk from disease according to the Red Cross.

Francis Markus told the BBC's Tim Willcox that the focus of the Red Cross was on providing relief to the evacuation centres and addressing medical problems.

Police in Japan say 15,000 people may have been killed in a single prefecture, Miyagi, by the disaster, as the official death toll rose to 8,133, with 12,272 people missing.

More than 8,000 people have been confirmed dead following the earthquake and tsunami, but some 13,000 are still missing.

In the town of Rikuzen Takata most of the children were in school when the tsunami struck, ensuring they survived, but many of their parents are missing.

Damian Grammaticas reports.

New footage of the Japanese tsunami's waves has been released by the country's coast guard.

Filmed 5 km (3 miles) off the north-eastern coast of Japan, the images show the waves rolling towards the Matsushima coast guard vessel. The captain steers the boat directly into the waves and the ship crests the enormous swell.

I think we could help Japanese through Government Organization and some other official organizations. It is the way our country doing.
