Press conference with thirteen-year-old Sky Brown after she became Team GB's youngest Olympic medallist after taking the bronze medal in the women’s skateboard park event at the Ariake Urban Arena in Tokyo.
During a nighttime training flight, two Japanese navy helicopters, each carrying four crew members, crashed in the Pacific Ocean south of Tokyo, possibly colliding with each other, according to the country's defence minister on Sunday. Tragically, one crew member recovered from the waters was later declared deceased, while rescuers continued to search for the remaining seven who were still missing. The incident occurred late Saturday near Torishima island, approximately 600 kilometres (370 miles) south of Tokyo, involving two SH-60K choppers from the Maritime Self-Defense Force, Defense Minister Minoru Kihara informed reporters.

average starting bloom date of March 29 between
1961 and 1990, according to Sasano's research.

the data showed that the
average moved up to March 24. .
In 2023, the starting bloom
date in Tokyo was March 14. .

starts to springtime activity
