On-sea protest held to oppose Henoko landfill work for new US base

An on-sea protest took place on the day marking five years since the national government forcibly began pouring dirt into the sea area off Henoko as part of the construction of a new U.S. base. Holding banners that read “No! New U.S. base!” and “Don’t destroy precious coral reefs!”, protesters on civilian boats and kayaks shouted in chorus “Stop landfill work!” and “No more U.S. base in Okinawa!” (Apr.26,2022/Okinawa, Henoko)
