Fukushima: The nuclear disaster that shook the world – BBC News
On March 11th 2011, Japan’s most powerful earthquake on record triggered a tsunami, which then caused a meltdown at a nuclear power plant.
It wiped entire towns off the map and forced Fukushima’s residents from their homes as radiation leaked from the plant. The government estimates the disaster could cost nearly $200bn, and the clean-up may take until 2051.
Today the prefecture of Fukushima is still dealing with the aftermath of the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami. What happened that day, and what was it like for the people who lived through it?
The BBC’s Tui McLean explains how the triple disaster unfolded.

The UN says no aid has yet been distributed in Gaza despite aid lorries starting to cross the border after an 11-week blockade.
Israeli officials said 93 trucks entered Gaza on Tuesday, carrying aid including flour, baby food, medical equipment, and pharmaceutical drugs.
But the UN said, despite trucks reaching the Palestinian side of the Kerem Shalom crossing, no aid has been distributed so far.
Israel agreed on Sunday to allow a “basic amount of food” to enter Gaza, where global experts have warned of a looming famine.
International pressure on Israel has continued to grow – the UK said it would be suspending trade talks over what it described as Israel’s “morally unjustifiable” military escalation in Gaza.

The Trump administration has moved to end Harvard’s ability to enrol international students, escalating a standoff with America’s oldest university.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said the administration had revoked Harvard’s “Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification as a result of their failure to adhere to the law.”
“Let this serve as a warning to all universities and academic institutions across the country,” she wrote on X on Thursday.
Harvard called the move “unlawful” in a statement.
Over 6,700 international students were enrolled at the institution last academic year, university data shows, making up 27% of its student body.
