It's been a year since the Okinawa Defense Bureau began construction of an ammunition depot at the Bora mine district in Miyakojima, Okinawa Prefecture.
Despite protests by local residents, construction is steadily proceeding, with cement mixers and other vehicles delivering materials to the site on a daily basis.
But the defense bureau has yet to secure all of the land it needs for the project, making it unclear whether the depot will be completed by March 2021 as planned.
