Attacks Aim to Halt Japan Narita Airport Expansion
Militants vowing to continue assaults on Japan's Narita project shattered radar and control room gear during a mass protest. Leader Issaku Tomura of the AntiAirport League says the fight will go on until the airport is abolished, as clashes injure many and spark renewed delays. Police report 115 arrests amid rioting by about 6,500 militants and 13,000 riot police, with thousands more in Narita.
