North Korean "Ghost Ships" Continue to Wash Ashore in Japan

  • 6 years ago
The seemingly endless appearances of "ghost ships" full of dead North Koreans on the shores of Japan is indicative of Kim Jong Un's weakening grip over his citizens, experts say. The latest took place last week, when a capsized boat containing the decayed remains of seven bodies washed ashore in Kanazawa, a city on Japan's west coast. A badge portraying former North Korean leaders Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il was also found nearby. It was the second such discovery in Japan this month.
