G7 Leaders Gather in Hiroshima Amid Heightened Security Measures

Hiroshima, Japan, is ramping up security measures as it prepares to host the G7 Leaders’ Summit starting tomorrow. With 24,000 police personnel deployed, including 21,000 officers from surrounding provinces, the city is taking precautions to ensure the safety of the G7 leaders. The Grand Prince Hotel and nearby roads have been temporarily closed to traffic, while lockers at train stations are inaccessible due to terrorism risks. The Hiroshima Governorate has advised the public to avoid private vehicles, and some schools and factories have suspended operations. Tourist sites like the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park and Miyajima Island are closed temporarily. The recent attacks in Japan have heightened security concerns, prompting the government to implement the highest security level for the summit. G7 leaders, including US President Joe Biden, British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, and others, have arrived in Japan to discuss global issues, including the situation in Ukraine.
