Over 1,000 protest in Kumamoto against Japan’s plan to deploy upgraded missiles, citing constitutional concerns and peace commitments.
Over 1,000 people protested in Kumamoto Prefecture on February 23 against Japan’s plan to deploy an upgraded Type 12 surface-to-ship missile system at Camp Kengun by the end of March.
Demonstrators, many holding signs reading “No missiles” and “Don’t turn Kumamoto into a battlefield,” demanded the government cancel the deployment and increase transparency with local residents.
Organizers cited concerns over Article 9 of Japan’s pacifist Constitution, arguing the move contradicts the nation’s long-standing commitment to peace.
The protest reflects ongoing public opposition to military expansion and growing debate over Japan’s defense policy.
