U.S. military says its withdrawal of troops from Iraq complete
What happened
U.S. forces in Okinawa imposed a month-long curfew and alcohol ban after a Marine was suspected of killing and robbing a local woman, Reuters reported.
Ballard denied the allegations, police said.
U.S. military operations on Okinawa will pause for 48 hours while troops receive training on standards and discipline, Lieutenant-General Benjamin Watson said.
Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi called the killing «extremely brutal and heinous» and said she demanded preventive measures from the United States.
“Every interaction with our neighbors either builds or undermines the trust that is essential to our team.”
