News about the nuclear accident at Fukushima

r/Fukushima

Following the 9.1 Tohoku earthquake, a 15-meter tsunami disabled the power supply and cooling of eight Fukushima reactors, causing a nuclear accident on 11 March 2011. Three cores at Fukushima Daiichi were damaged and melted into their containment structure. The Japanese government still covers up the true death toll to this day.
