Unfortunately not good news for Japan, the country is now in a state of “Maximum Alert” after Plutonium was detected in soil around the plant caused by Highly Radioactive water that has leaked from the No. 2 reactor .
Plutonium was detected in soil at the facility and highly radioactive water had leaked from a reactor building. Officials in China, South Korea and the United States have recorded traces of radioactive material in the air. Earlier, Japan’s government strongly criticised the plant’s operator, Tepco, over mistaken radiation readings.
Mr Kan told parliament the situation “continues to be unpredictable”.
