U.S. limits troop movement off Okinawa base after murder case

Original: U.S. restricts troops from leaving Okinawa base after Marine accused of murder

The U.S. military has restricted American troops from leaving their base in Okinawa, Japan, after a U.S. Marine was accused of murder. The move curbs off-base activities for personnel stationed there. The case is likely to stir local anger in Okinawa, where crimes by American service members have long fueled tension over the heavy U.S. military presence on the island.

Why now: The alleged murder by a U.S. Marine has reignited friction over the American military presence in Okinawa.
