The Yasukuni shrine in Japan is back in the spotlight on the anniversary of the end of World War 2. The shrine honours millions who died during the conflict, but also war criminals, according to neighbouring countries such as South Korea and China.
War veterans at Japan's controversial war shrine talk to Al Jazeera's Tony Cheng.
