In response to 'growing concern' over escalating tensions between China and Taiwan, Japan has announced plans to increase the number of bomb shelters on its remote islands. This decision comes amid growing concerns for the safety of the region. Additionally, the country is addressing the aftermath of the Noto Peninsula Earthquake by consolidating approximately 6,600 survivors currently living in 230 temporary shelters, including ad hoc facilities, into fewer officially designated shelters in Ishikawa Prefecture. Design guidelines for the new bomb shelters are expected to be completed next month, with proposals for the evacuation of residents on remote islands also being developed.
