Japan begins search for remains of war dead in Taiwan

Kiswahili

The Japanese government has started an excavation survey in Taiwan to recover remains of war dead, marking the first such effort since 1975 despite the absence of diplomatic relations between Tokyo and Taipei.

The survey focuses on locating remains from World War II. It is the first time since 1975 that Japan has conducted this type of excavation in Taiwan.

Taiwan and Japan lack formal diplomatic ties. The initiative addresses recovery of war dead in the region.

Keywords associated with the effort include the Bashi Channel and broader Taiwan-Japan relations.
