What are the reasons why Japan attacked Philippines?​

Sagot :

Answer:

The objective of the strikes at Pearl Harbor and the Philippines was to shield Japan's drive southward to seize the oil and natural resources of Southeast Asia and the Dutch East Indies. The strategy was to clear the US forces in the Philippines out of the way. Key targets were the fighter bases.

Answer:

  • Japan attacked the Philippines because they seized areas south of the Philippines for their resources. Japan had to take the Philippines because if they did not, bases in the Philippines could be used for Air and Naval sources that would separate Japan from the resources that Japan needed.

  • It wasn’t just the US that could use those bases, any of the many enemies Japan took on in 1941 would have found the Philippines strategically vital.
