On October 17, IPSI nonresident senior fellow Ryo Hinata-Yamaguchi was quoted in the South China Morning Post on recent ROK-Japan cooperation to evacuate Japanese and South Korean civilians from Israel. Hinata-Yamaguchi told SCMP that their collaboration on this issue was a small but positive development: “What is really significant to me is that the two sides are not making a really big deal out of this situation, but that they are now openly agreeing to help each other out again in the future.”
