Four days before Tokyo Narita International Airport opens its doors in Japan, major protests

46
years ago

26 February 1978,

Four days before the Tokyo Narita International Airport opened its doors in Japan, the enormous protests against the airport exploded again. The farmers and neighbours of the area, with their communist and left-wing movements, destroyed the airport control tower with Molotov cocktails. The airport was built without permission on peasant lands.
