Seabed-boring survey off Henoko resumed

Seabed-boring survey off Henoko resumed

A Japan Coast Guard vessel (L) confronts a boat carrying opponents of the resumption of a seabed-boring survey by the Okinawa Defense Bureau off the Henoko district of Nago in the southernmost prefecture of Okinawa on March 12, 2015. Tokyo plans to reclaim land there to build a base as a replacement facility for a key U.S. military base elsewhere in Okinawa. Okinawa Gov. Takeshi Onaga said the move is "quite regrettable" and that he will do his utmost not to allow construction of the base. (Kyodo) ==Kyodo
