Japan relaxed a decades-old ban on military-related exports Tuesday, April 1, 2014, in a bid to expand joint arms development with allies and equipment sales to Southeast Asia and elsewhere. The new guidelines endorsed Tuesday by the Cabinet are part of Abe's push to bolster national security amid China's military expansion and North Korea's nuclear threat.

Toya Chiba, a reporter with the Iwate Tokai newspaper, recounts his ordeal with the tsunami that swept him away at the port city of Kamaishi, northeastern Japan, on Wednesday April 13, 2011. The region was struck by a massive earthquake that spawned the tsunami on March 11, 2011.

In this photo taken Friday, March 25, 2011, a man walks at the devastated city of Onagawa, Miyagi prefecture, northeastern Japan. As March 11 massive tsunami ravaged this Japanese fishing town, hundreds of residents fled for the safest place they knew: the local nuclear power plant. More than two weeks later, 240 remain, watching TV or playing ball games with their children next to three atomic reactors. It's a startling contrast to the troubled nuclear plant 75 miles (120 kilometers) southeast, where radiation leaks have forced an evacuation of nearby towns, terrifying the nation.
