韩外交部就卡车撞击日本大使馆事件表示遗憾 大家好,我是王璇，今天的 The AsiaN新闻，又同您见面了。 根据韩国媒体报道，韩国一名金姓货车司机因近日发生在韩日之间的“慰安妇少女像事件”感到气愤至极，于昨日（9日）驾驶自家货车撞入日本大使馆正门。韩国外交部（下简称外交部）当日对事件发生造成的不良后果向日本大使馆方面表示遗憾。 外交部表示“目前韩国警察方面正在对事件的具体过程展开详细的调查”，以及“计划强化日本大使馆附近的警备力量，以及必要的警备设施”等。 事件起因是由于在上个月一名日本极右势力代表来到矗立在日本大使馆门前的慰安妇铜像边，书写了带有“独岛是日本的领土”的字句，由此引发了两国民众之间的愤怒情绪。 据悉，当天金某将挂有“独岛是我们的土地”条幅的货车从日本大使馆正门直冲而入。日本大使馆正门被严重损坏，没有发生人员伤亡。 当然还是和往常一样，欢迎您点击我们的网站，浏览其他要闻。 我们的网站是 http://cn.theasian.asia/?p=5003 今天就到这里，谢谢您的收看。 news@theasian.asia
