Japanese PM Fumio Kishida and three of his Cabinet ministers ate sashimi of flounder, octopus and sea bass that were caught at the Fukushima coast after the radioactive water was released.
Tsunami waves knocked out the Fukushima nuclear power plant’s backup electricity supply and caused meltdowns in three of its reactors. The event is regarded as one of the worst nuclear accidents in history.
Chinese authorities said they will “dynamically adjust relevant regulatory measures as appropriate to prevent the risks of nuclear-contaminated water discharge to the health and food safety of our country."
A massive earthquake and tsunami in 2011 destroyed the Fukushima plant’s cooling systems, causing the meltdown of three reactors and the release of large amounts of radiation.
Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga said the ocean release was the "most realistic" option and that disposing of the water is "unavoidable" for the decommissioning of the Fukushima plant, which is expected to take decades.
At least 30 people were injured after a massive earthquake measuring 7.3 on the Richter scale struck Japan's Fukushima prefecture, authorities said on Sunday.
The quake was also felt in the capital Tokyo where an intensity scale of 4 was logged, with many reporting that their houses and furniture underwent strong shaking and some saying they felt dizzy because of the quake.
