“This is a very serious incident that affects the security of our territory and our people,” said Kishi, who also said that this is the first time that ballistic missiles from chinese army impact on the water area of ​​the special economic zone.

Government Japan submitted a diplomatic protest to the leadership of the PRC in connection with the launches carried out as part of the exercises of the Chinese army in the strait Taiwan and this has led to the closure of sea and air space in six areas around the island that Beijing considers part of its territory.

Missiles ended up in the waters near the island of Hateruma, part of the archipelago Okinawain the extreme southwest of Japan.
