Korean women protest troop bill in Seoul
About 50 Korean women including former comfort women rallied against a bill allowing Japan to send troops overseas. They warned Japan risks reviving militarism without apologizing or compensating victims of wartime sexual slavery. The protest highlighted historical estimates of 70,000 to 200,000 Korean women forced to serve as sex slaves for Japanese soldiers.
