From The New York Times:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The Chinese state news media portrayed the demonstrations as fairly small, each involving fewer than 200 people, and not extending to inland provinces. But photographs posted on Sina Weibo, the country\u2019s most widely used microblogging service, suggested that the crowds had been far larger. In one photo said to be from the southwestern city of Chengdu, deep in China\u2019s interior, the number of protesters appeared to be tens of thousands.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDefend the Diaoyu Islands to the death,\u201d one banner said. Another said, \u201cEven if China is covered with graves, we must kill all Japanese.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another photograph showed a handwritten sign taped to the entrance of Suning, a popular electronics store, telling customers it was no longer selling Japanese products.<\/p>\n<p>Some protests appear to have turned violent. According to several postings, demonstrators on Sunday attacked sushi restaurants or other businesses perceived to have a Japanese connection. Several photographs said to be from Shenzhen, across the border from Hong Kong, showed what appeared to be damaged or overturned cars \u2014 most of them Japanese models \u2014 as well as several police vehicles.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Tensions on the Diaoyu Islands (Senkaku Islands in Japanese) have escalated since April, when the governor of Tokyo <a href=\"https:\/\/chinadigitaltimes.net\/2012\/08\/tokyo-governor-at-heart-of-diaoyu-standoff\/\">announced plans<\/a> for the city to purchase them. Despite warnings from Chinese state media telling the Japanese not to interfere with the boat from Hong Kong, the Japanese Coast Guard detained 14 of the activists before <a href=\"http:\/\/www.globaltimes.cn\/content\/727645.shtml\">allowing them to return to Hong Kong on Saturday<\/a>. The China Daily then reported that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chinadaily.com.cn\/world\/2012-08\/19\/content_15686586.htm\">10 Japanese activists landed on the Diaoyu Islands<\/a> on Sunday morning, despite not having approval from the Japanese government. They are believed to be part of a larger fleet of\u00a0150 Japanese activists and 21 vessels that planned to hold a ceremony in the nearby waters for those who died in World War II.<\/p>\n<p>Xinhua news <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/news.xinhuanet.com\/english\/indepth\/2012-08\/19\/c_131794676.htm\">called the Japanese landing &#8220;illegal&#8221;<\/a><\/strong> and lamented the damage it had inflicted on ties between the two countries:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Sunday&#8217;s landing, along with a barrage of other provocations, has poisoned the atmosphere of the Sino-Japanese relations and constituted another setback for both countries&#8217; efforts to further their political and economic ties.<\/p>\n<p>The Japanese rightists should immediately stop any action that undermines Chinese territorial sovereignty and be barred from fuelling the tension between the two neighbors.<\/p>\n<p>To this end, the Japanese government should act with great responsibility and proceed from the overall interests of the Sino-Japanese relations to seek a peaceful settlement of any disputes.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The demonstrations in China <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ft.com\/intl\/cms\/s\/0\/97805eaa-e9ee-11e1-929b-00144feab49a.html?ftcamp=published_links%2Frss%2Fworld_asia-pacific%2Ffeed%2F%2Fproduct#axzz242tqnLwb\">&#8220;mark the worst deterioration in relations since 2010,&#8221;<\/a><\/strong> according to The Financial Times:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Chinese protestors gathered in dozens of cities, in some cases vandalising Japanese-made cars and retail outlets. About 1,000 people marched in the southern city of Shenzhen, overturning a Japanese-made police vehicle and attacking a Japanese restaurant, according to Xinhua, the Chinese state news agency.<\/p>\n<p>In the western city of Chengdu, a branch of Uniqlo, the Japanese clothing store, had to close due to the protests. Demonstrations were also reported in a dozen other Chinese cities including Shanghai, Guangzhou, Xian, Jinan and Qingdao. In Beijing, a few protesters appeared outside the Japanese embassy on Sunday morning amid heightened security, but there was no other sign of unrest in the capital.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Nanfang <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thenanfang.com\/blog\/thousands-pour-onto-streets-in-shenzhen-guangzhou-to-protest-the-japanese\/\">has posted a number of photos<\/a><\/strong> that have emerged on microblogging site Sina Weibo, including the ones below:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/chinadigitaltimes.net\/2012\/08\/diaoyu-dispute-sparks-anti-japan-protests\/diaoyu-protests\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-141983\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-141983\" src=\"http:\/\/chinadigitaltimes.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Diaoyu-Protests.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"440\" height=\"3301\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anti-Japan protests swept across China on Sunday, after Japanese activists landed on the Diaoyu Islands in the East China Sea and unfurled Japanese flags just days after Japan detained a group of activists from Hong Kong for attempting to similarly assert China&#8217;s sovereignty on the disputed territory.
