Japan is implementing extensive security measures for the 2026 Asian Games in Nagoya. To protect Emperor Naruhito and Empress Masako during the opening ceremony, the National Police Agency is mobilizing approximately 10,000 officers, including 3,100 specialized units from across the country. Security protocols include the first application of a recently passed law establishing a drone no-fly zone within a one-kilometer radius of the ceremony venue and the imperial couple’s accommodations. To mitigate risks from “lone offenders” and potential terrorist attacks, authorities are establishing a dedicated intelligence center that utilizes artificial intelligence to monitor social media for threats. This initiative, referred to as the “ASIAD Lone Offender Threat Information Center,” is a first-of-its-kind effort for a non-national election event, specifically designed to identify and mitigate risks from individuals acting without formal terrorist affiliations.
