June 22, 2017 Ryukyu Shimpo
The Ryukyu Shimpo and Yahoo news have jointly created videos on the Battle of Okinawa and military base issues and shared them with viewers across the country. The videos are published on both Yahoo and The Ryukyu Shimpo’s websites.
It is the first time Yahoo has collaborated with a local newspaper company to create content.
In a feature story called, “Battle of Okinawa and the Aftermath”, part of Yahoo’s “Memories of the War to Keep for Future,” series, there are several videos including two videos titled “The Battle of Okinawa in Three Minutes” and “Okinawa in Five Minutes and The Expansion of Military after the War”, as well as testimonies from war survivors.
