The operator of the troubled Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan revealed the damage to one of the reactors is worse than had previously been thought.
Tokyo Electric Power Co., which operates the Fukushima-1 power plant, said it discovered that molten nuclear fuel burned through the walls of reactor No. 1 early on in the crisis.
“Operation Water Sarcophagus” will have to be corrected because of radioactive water leaking through the holes burned by the molten fuel, Tepco officials said on Thursday.
