TOKYO--Japan will deploy two more patrol ships to boost its defense of islands at the center of a territorial row with China and has conducted its first drill simulating the recapture of an isle seized by enemy forces.

The vessels will be stationed at the regional coast guard headquarters which covers the Japanese-controlled Senkaku islands in the East China Sea, known as the Diaoyus in China, Japanese public broadcaster NHK said Monday.

The 335-metric ton “Kurose” and the 3,100-metric ton “Chikuzen,” equipped with a helicopter, will be deployed in August and October respectively, NHK reported.
