New Blast Reported at Japanese Nuclear Plant as Workers Struggle to Cool Reactor
An explosion early Tuesday morning may have damaged the inner
steel containment vessel of the No. 2 reactor at Japan's
Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, leading to the wide
release of radioactive materials there and forcing the
evacuation of emergency workers, the plant's operator said.
The blast appeared to be different -- and more severe -- than
those that at two other troubled reactor at the same nuclear
complex because this one, reported to have occurred at 6:14
a.m., happened in the "pressure suppression room" in the
cooling area of the reactor, raising the possibility to
damage to the reactor's containment vessel.
