TOKYO, June 28 (Xinhua) -- Japan on Friday started the seventh round of release of nuclear-contaminated wastewater from the crippled Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the Pacific Ocean.
Despite furious opposition both at home and abroad, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), the plant's operator, started releasing the radioactive wastewater in the morning, the third round in fiscal 2024.
The same as the previous rounds, about 7,800 tons of the wastewater will be discharged until July 16. ■
