An annual ceremony was held in western Japan on Monday to push the country's claim to Takeshima, a group of islets controlled by South Korea, but on a smaller scale due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The ceremony in Matsue has been held every Feb. 22 since 2006 after the Shimane prefectural government designated the day as "Takeshima Day" in 2005, a century after a Cabinet decision was issued placing the islets in the Sea of Japan under the prefecture's jurisdiction.
