Fukushima Workers Evacuated Amidst Tsunami Warnings

Workers at Japan's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant were evacuated due to tsunami warnings issued following a powerful earthquake off Russia's coast. The plant operator confirmed all 4,000 personnel were safely evacuated with no detected abnormalities. This event inevitably evokes memories of the 2011 disaster, where a major earthquake and subsequent tsunami caused a nuclear meltdown at the plant, resulting in over 18,000 fatalities and leaving significant hazardous material requiring ongoing management.
