Event held in Japan to claim Souh Korea-held islets amid improving ties

Summary by Ground News
An annual ceremony was held in western Japan on Thursday to push the country's claim to a group of South Korea-controlled islets in the Sea of Japan. The Shimane government designated Feb. 22 as "Takeshima Day" in 2005, a century after a Cabinet decision was issued placing them under the prefecture's jurisdiction. South Korea has stationed security personnel on the islets, located roughly 200 kilometers from either country, since 1954.
