About 300 tonnes of radioactive water has leaked from storage tanks at a damaged nuclear power plant in Japan, says Tokyo Electric Power Co.
The source of the leak at Fukushima Daiichi plant hasn’t been identified and the toxic water had likely flowed into the soil.
Puddles with extremely high radiation levels had been found near the storage tanks yesterday.
Tokyo Electric has been struggling to contain leaks at the plant as it continues to inject water into three reactors to keep them cool.
The reactors suffered meltdowns after the complex was struck by the earthquake and tsunami in March 2011.
