Item Description
The coffins lie in their dozens, each draped with a blanket and a box of personal possessions - but only a few masked officials to look after them. And as Japan marked exactly one week since its north east coast was hit by a devastating tsunami, the bodies were still coming in. A town hall converted into a morgue in Rifu was just one of scores of similar facilities across the country to cope with the mounting death toll.
