And finally, tens of thousands in Tokyo have protested government plans to re-launch the country's nuclear industry -- nearly four years after the Fukushima disaster.
On Sunday, organizers say about 23-thousand people joined the major rally in front of Japan's parliament,... calling for the decommission of all nuclear plants across the country... and Asia.
Japan has been without atomic energy for more than a year.
The Shinzo Abe administration is seeking to change that by restarting the first reactors in June.
"The recovery effort in Fukushima Daiichi is making no progress as they keep contaminating the ocean and fail to bring the situation under control. In fact, it's getting worse in many respects. We want to tell the world that the Fukushima nuclear accident has never ended, and it continues to affect all of us."
The protest comes just days ahead of the four year anniversary since the massive earthquake and tsunami,... which triggered the meltdown at the Fukushima Daiichi power plant.
And that wraps up our look at international stories for now. I'll see you back here tomorrow night.
