[Japan’s total discharge of nuclear-contaminated water exceeds 190,000 tons] On November 13, Japan’s Tokyo Electric Power Company completed the 25th round of discharge of nuclear-contaminated water from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the sea on the 13th. The cumulative discharge of nuclear-contaminated water so far has exceeded 190,000 tons. According to the announcement issued by Tokyo Electric Power Company that day, the seventh round of nuclear-contaminated water discharge in fiscal year 2026 ended at 12:17 local time on the 13th (11:17 Beijing time). This round of emissions began on October 26, with a total of 7,835 tons of nuclear-contaminated water discharged, containing a total of approximately 1.4 trillion becquerels of radioactive tritium. In August 2023, Japan ignored the strong doubts and opposition from the international community and unilaterally forcibly initiated the discharge of nuclear contaminated water from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the sea. This is the 25th round of discharge of nuclear-contaminated water in total. The total discharge of 25 rounds of nuclear-contaminated water to the sea so far has reached 196,000 tons. Data released by Tokyo Electric Power Company shows that as of October 29, the water storage tanks at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant still store approximately 1.22 million tons of nuclear contaminated water.
