Back to Fukushima - RT Documentary

The Japanese Chernobyl - this is how Japan’s Fukushima disaster is known. In terms of severity, it was assigned the highest level on the International Nuclear Event Scale. In March 2011, an earthquake and tsunami de-energized the station: the reactors overheated, and then explosions occurred at three power units. The nearby settlements were poisoned by radiation. People left their homes to flee from the disaster. A decade later, they are returning. Will their life be as it used to before the disaster? Find out in our documentary, ’Back to Fukushima’ (2019). #HumanStories@rt__documentary
