How to find implied sentence parts in flash news


The following is a flash news from テレ朝

沖縄県 「緊急事態宣言」政府への要請を正式決定

Two questions:

  1. What particles are implied after Okinawa prefecture and after quoted "declaration of emergency state"?
  2. Since the government is followed by へ, の cannot be the subject marker, then who on earth is calling for the government to declare the state of emergency?

Bonus question: are there general rules how to analyze flash news?




It should be read as 沖縄県 **が** 「緊急事態宣言」 **の** 政府への要請を正式決定. Note that 「緊急事態宣言」の
modifies 要請, not 政府. It means 沖縄県が「緊急事態宣言」を政府に要請することを正式に決定した.

In many cases, the first part is the subject and the last part refers to
something it did, or was done if the noun at the end is normally used in the
passive, such as 逮捕.
