Japanese warship on antipiracy duty at port in Djibouti

An officer on the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force destroyer Ikazuchi looks through a pair of binoculars on July 29, 2015, in Djibouti, eastern Africa. Japan sees Djibouti as a strategic point along a major sea lane and began sending MSDF vessels on an antipiracy mission in 2009, but is now wary of moves by China seeking to build a naval base there.
