The 17th round of ocean discharge of nuclear-contaminated wastewater from the crippled Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant was completed on Monday, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) said.
Despite concerns and opposition from the international community, Japan unilaterally launched the discharge of nuclear-contaminated water from the plant into the ocean in August 2023. As of the completion of the 17th round, the cumulative volume released has reached about 133,000 tons.
