1. The Japanese government released a video series on its YouTube channel about North Korea's abduction of Japanese citizens in the 1970s and 1980s, aiming to raise awareness among younger generations.
2. The series depicts how North Korea allegedly used the identification documents of Japanese nationals for international spy activities and had them teach Japanese language and customs to North Korean agents.
3. The videos also question the credibility of North Korea's claims that several abducted Japanese are dead, as DNA analysis showed that remains claimed by North Korea were not those of the abductees Megumi Yokota and Kaoru Matsuki.
