Four months ahead of the much waited Summer Olympics in Tokyo, the Olympics torch relay started from Fukushima on Thursday. The Olympics torch will be carried by nearly 10,000 runners across Japan's 47 prefectures and far-flung islands. "For the past year, as the entire world underwent a difficult period, the Olympic flame was kept alive quietly but powerfully," Tokyo 2020 president Seiko Hashimoto said.
