Hundreds of people in Japan's capital Monday participated in an evacuation drill meant to simulate the scenario of an incoming North Korean ballistic missile.
A voice over a loudspeaker at an amusement park told the participants, "We have information that a missile launch has occurred. Please evacuate calmly inside a building or underground." Media reports say that people calmly walked to shelters.
Similar drills were held around the country last year, but the drill in the amusement park was the first to be held in the capital.
North Korea has its neighbors on edge with its missile and nuclear testing. The isolated country has flown missiles over Japan and into the sea near Japan, as part of its missile testing program.
Residents in earthquake-prone Japan are use to drills for natural disasters. Some residents, however, objected to the drill on Monday, thinking this is a way to promote a war, which would devastate everything.
日本首都东京星期一有几百人进行了模拟一枚朝鲜弹道导弹正在飞来时的疏散演习。
一个主题公园的扬声器宣布:“我们掌握的信息显示,一枚导弹已经发射。请镇静地撤到建筑物内或地下。”媒体报道,人们镇静地走到庇护场所。
日本去年进行了类似演习,但这是东京第一次在主题公园内进行这样的演习。
朝鲜不断进行导弹以及核武器试射,令其邻国日本不安。孤立于世的朝鲜在试射时,导弹曾数次飞越日本,落到离日本不远的海域。
日本经常发生地震,日本民众对模拟自然灾害的演习司空见惯。但是一些日本民众反对星期一进行的演习,认为这是宣扬战争,而且一场核战争将会毁灭一切。
