BEIJING, April 1 (Xinhua) — China expresses serious concern over Japan's deployment of long-range missiles in Kumamoto and Shizuoka prefectures, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said on Wednesday.

Long-range missiles with second-strike capability have reportedly been deployed for the first time at two Japan Self-Defense Forces bases.
