Japan suspends annual whale hunt in Australian waters
Anti-whaling groups are claiming victory after the Japanese whaling fleet suspended its annual hunt in the Southern Ocean.
It follows clashes between two anti-whaling boats and a Japanese factory ship, in what protesters claim were Australian waters.
The captain of one of the protest ships said it was the most dangerous confrontation he had witnessed.
