Blast shakes Yasukuni war shrine
Although no one was injured, the ceiling and the wall of the public toilet near the entrance have been damaged. The temple honors the 2.4 million Japanese war dead, including executed war criminals, during the first half of the twentieth century. Yasukuni is in the crosshairs of countries like China and South Korea, which experienced the atrocities committed by Japan during World War II. The shrine has produced clashes between the Japanese population.
