Japanese protest against war in Gaza as G7 foreign ministers meet

People hold banners and chant slogans during a march to protest over a G7 foreign ministers' meeting in Tokyo set to seek a common line on Gaza, as calls mount for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war.

"Japan has a connection to both Israel and Palestine, and is in a better position than other countries to say ceasefire or stop the massacres, yet it does not say so properly and has effectively supported Israel", says protester Koji Sugihara.
