Kobe and nearby cities devastated in the 1995 Great Hanshin Earthquake commemorated Jan. 17 the 15th anniversary of the disaster that claimed 6,434 lives. People gathered before dawn in a park in the center of Kobe to light thousands of bamboo lanterns in the shape of "1995" and "1.17" and offered silent prayers at 5:46 a.m., the time the magnitude 7.3 quake struck.
