About 130 evacuees from Miyake Island moved into public housing Wednesday after spending three nights at the Miyake evacuation headquarters in Tokyo's Shibuya Ward.

The majority of them, about 100 residents, were among the first to arrive in Tokyo after fleeing the island under Friday's evacuation order.

The group included 57 people with illnesses or physical disabilities who were transported to their new homes by three buses chartered by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government.
