TOKYO: The operator of Japan's Fukushima nuclear power plant said it started dismantling hundreds of water tanks on Friday (Feb 14), as it takes apart the site of one of the world's worst meltdowns.
Scrapping these welded tanks is a crucial step in Tokyo Electric Power Company's (Tepco) decades-long effort to decommission the stricken facility, which went into meltdown after it was hit by a catastrophic tsunami in 2011.
