中日關係越發緊張 日本將部署導彈
Japan will develop a new land-to-sea missile as part of plans to beef up itsdefence of remote southern islands, as tensions with China increase over the disputed territory, a report said Sunday.
週日有報道稱由於中日關係因爲爭議島嶼變得越發緊張，日本將部署陸對海導彈以加強對南部偏遠島嶼的防衛，
The two countries are locked in a long-running dispute over the uninhabited islets known as the Senkaku in Japan and the Diaoyu in China.
兩國長久以來都因爲東海爭議島嶼而關係緊張。
The report comes after repeated protests by Japanese foreign ministry officials over what Tokyo calls “intrusions” by Chinese ships in the territorial and contiguous waters of the rocky islands.
此前，日本外交部官員多次抗議中國船隻“入侵”爭議島嶼海域。
Tokyo plans to deploy the weapon, which reportedly will have a range of 300km (190 miles) on islands such as Miyako in Okinawa prefecture, the top-selling Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper said, without citing sources.
日本計劃在沖繩地區的宮古島等島嶼上部署這些航程達300公里的導彈，讀賣新聞報道，但沒有援引消息來源。
The range will cover the disputed island chain, the Yomiuri said, adding that the deployment is expected by 2023.
讀賣新聞報道稱這一射程將覆蓋爭議島鏈，預計在2023年部署。
Officials at the Defence Ministry could not be reached for comment.
