Kyodo News said about half of the passengers were Japanese citizens.
Japan's Kyodo news agency
and public broadcaster NHK reported on Monday that a US F-15 fighter jet crashed into the sea off Okinawa in southern Japan.
The statement came after Japan's Kyodo news service, citing an
unidentified government source, said the North might have launched several missiles and that they were a failure.
He declined to comment on the nationality of the strikers or
how many people were refusing food, but Kyodo News said more than 40 detainees were involved.
According to the Kyodo report, the G20 countries are expected
to reach a consensus that will ensure that Crypto-payment platforms conduct strict KYC to establish the identity of each customer to outlaw anonymity.
Japan's Cabinet Satellite Intelligence Centre's study showed objects up to eight metres in length and four metres wide in images captured by a satellite between 9 am and 3 pm(local time)
Wednesday, Kyodo said.
Meanwhile, some 100 people were injured across the country, according to a Kyodo News tally based on the information provided by rescuers
and other authorities, while an NHK tally put the number of injured at 149.
