New Emergency Fukushima. The black smoke is rising from the No. 3 reactor of the nuclear and technicians working in the plant were evacuated. The Japan Agency for Nuclear Safety has made it clear however that the radiation levels were unchanged after the release of smoke. In the area there was a new aftershock with a preliminary magnitude of 4.7.
Currently there are no reports of further damage. In Japan, meanwhile, grows, the alarm for radioactive contamination The water that flows from the taps of Tokyo (a megalopolis with 25 million inhabitants) has a rate of radioactive iodine, which exceeds the legal limit allowed for the children.
For this the authorities of the Japanese capital inadvisable to give it to children or use it to prepare their milk. "I do not know if the smoke coming from the building that houses the turbine or the reactor containment structure," explained a spokesman for the company that operates the plant, Tokyo Electric Power (TEPCO).
"Employees were evacuated from the control room of reactor 3," he added, without specifying the number of people who stood on the spot. Just in the control room of reactor 3 of the nuclear power - seriously damaged by the earthquake and tsunami of 11 March - had been partially reported in the last hour light: the light has returned some hours later that all six reactors in danger were connected to an external power source.
In all six reactors at a central Fukushima (Fukushima Daiichi) the power supply had been interrupted by natural disaster. 3 The rector was particularly damaged by an explosion: it is loaded with MOX fuel, which is a mixture of recycled fuels, thus having a melting point lower than the normal fuel and longer decay times.
