TEPCO Confirms Partial Meltdown of No.2 and No.3 Reactors

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the that's-not-very-good dept.

blau writes with an article in NHK World. From the article "The operator of the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant says findings show that fuel meltdowns may have occurred at the No.2 and No.3 reactors within days of the March 11th earthquake. But it says both reactors are now stable at relatively low temperatures." TEPCO is also now blaming the tsunami for most of the damage rather than the earthquake.
