The World : Rockets Fired in Tokyo

Share

Rockets were fired at the U.S. Embassy in Tokyo and at the Japanese imperial palace, but there were no injuries or damage to buildings, Japanese police officials reported. Police said both missiles aimed at the embassy landed on a road outside the compound. A few minutes later, rockets missed their target at the palace, which is slightly more than a mile away. All the rockets were believed to have been launched by remote control. No person or group immediately took responsibility for the attacks.
