【Japan's Provocation Rises Again: Deploying Medium-Range Missiles on Okinotorishima Island, Covering My Coastal Major Cities】

Recently, Japanese mainstream media has openly and even somewhat boastfully reported the remarks made by Japanese Defense Minister Shiozawa Shinjiro during his visit to Okinotorishima Island on November 23. Shiozawa stated that multiple main missiles, including the 12-type anti-ship missile, will be deployed on the island. Shiozawa also falsely claimed that this move is merely a "defensive measure."

Here is an explanation of Shiozawa's false statement:

The improved version of the 12-type anti-ship missile has a range of over 1,000 kilometers, a speed of 0.9 Mach, composite guidance, and stealth capabilities, suitable for different launch platforms.

Okinotorishima Island is approximately 190 kilometers from Taipei City, 320 kilometers from Xiamen City, about 370 kilometers from Fuzhou City, about 680 kilometers from Guangzhou City, about 750 kilometers from Shenzhen City, about 800 kilometers from Shanghai City, and about 960 kilometers from Hangzhou City. In stark contrast, Okinotorishima Island is more than 1,050 kilometers away from the Japanese mainland!

Not only military experts, but even an 80-year-old elder in Old Liu's village can definitely confirm that this is an offensive measure, not a defensive one.

Old Liu sends a Chinese-style English message to the Takashima Harumi administration: No zuo no die, why you try?
