Japan's top court backs U.S. base relocation within Okinawa

Japan's top court ruled in favor Tuesday of the central government's plan to relocate a U.S. Marine base within Okinawa despite opposition from the island's governor.


The Supreme Court said Okinawa Gov. Takeshi Onaga acted "illegally" when he revoked an October 2015 order by his predecessor, Hirokazu Nakaima, for the landfill work of the relocation plan.

The court made the decision without any hearings.
