Approximately 70 police officers and JR West employees participated in the joint training. The training assumed that explosives had been planted next to a bench on the Fukuoka Shinkansen platform. A police officer, who rushed to the scene in response to a report of a &#8220;suspicious bag,&#8221; confirmed that a wire was extending from the bag, and requested backup from the police department&#8217;s &#8220;explosives response unit.&#8221; JR West employees then informed passengers on the platform to move away, while officers wearing protective clothing used X-rays to confirm that the contents of the bag were indeed explosive. They then placed the bag in a special container and carried it away. <\/span><b>Source: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www3.nhk.or.jp\/fukuoka-news\/20230216\/5010019260.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NHK<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-151600\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/fnn_hakata-sta-g7_2023_cl.jpg?resize=1400%2C794&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Police and JR West Train to Combat Terrorism for G7 Summit\" width=\"1400\" height=\"794\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/fnn_hakata-sta-g7_2023_cl.jpg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/fnn_hakata-sta-g7_2023_cl.jpg?resize=300%2C170&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/fnn_hakata-sta-g7_2023_cl.jpg?resize=1024%2C581&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/fnn_hakata-sta-g7_2023_cl.jpg?resize=768%2C436&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><b>Get Fukuoka &amp; Kyushu area news and events in English regularly.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Sign up for our <\/span><b>free<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> weekly newsletter.
