S. Korean video on Japan radar dispute to be available in 8 languages
- 5 years ago
South Korea is planning to release a video in six more languages... aiming to refute claims by Japan that one of its planes was locked on by a South Korean warship's targeting radar.
The video is already on YouTube in Korean and English, but the defense ministry says they are making versions in Japanese, Chinese, French, Russian, Spanish and Arabic.
In the video, the ministry says the South Korean destroyer did not target the Japanese plane and was on a mission in the East Sea to rescue a boat in distress.
It also says the Japanese plane's low-altitude flight was "threatening."
The ministry says it wants to prevent the spread of misunderstandings after Japan's release of a video about the incident that it says distorts the facts.
