Hundreds of students are temporarily leaving areas in central Japan prefecture of Ishikawa hit by a powerful earthquake on New Year&#039;s Day. Officials are encouraging other residents to relocate as well, given the amount of time required to rebuild infrastructure.
                
One of the students is Miyawaki Mizuki, who attends a junior high school in Wajima City. He plans to take exams in March to go on to high school. With his current school being used as an emergency shelter, he decided to leave his family to stay in Hakusan City, a two-hour drive away.
                
He confesses to being a little worried about the move, but says the facility there is well equipped.
                
The group evacuation is expected to last for about two months. Teachers from Wajima schools will be responsible for the students at the new site.
                
Mizuki&#039;s father, Manabu, said he can only tell his son to do his best. He said he hopes his son will &quot;grow up a bit and come back.&quot;
                
More than 15,000 people are still staying at temporary shelters, such as school gymnasiums and community centers.
                
Self-Defense Forces personnel have been evacuating people from communities cut off by damaged roads. The evacuation of more than 300 people in the Nishiho district of Wajima is almost complete. Elsewhere, as of Wednesday, more than 50 people remained stranded there.
                
Some 140 people have registered as volunteers in the prefectural capital of Kanazawa. They are supporting evacuees by keeping shelters clean and distributing meals and relief supplies.
                
Some are working at a shelter in an area of Kanazawa that escaped damage. Elderly people, pregnant women and others who need special care can stay there before moving to secondary facilities.
                
The US military in Japan is also lending a hand. On Wednesday, a US Army helicopter transported 100 boxes of food and daily necessities to the disaster zone.
                
Lt. Col. Nicklaus Franck, commander of the army&#039;s Aviation Battalion Japan, said, &quot;All of us here are just humbled to be able to help, at any time something like this happens.&quot;
                
US Forces Japan previously carried out relief missions known as Operation Tomodachi following the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011. They also transported aid supplies after strong earthquakes in Kumamoto in 2016.
