Footage courtesy of Japanese TV broadcaster NHK shows aerial views of Fukushima Daini Nuclear Power Plant, after a 7.4 magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of north-eastern Japan causing a tsunami, on Tuesday morning. A wave reportedly about one yard high hit Fukushima’s coast, temporarily causing the water system used to cool fuel rods in the Number 3 reactor to stop. The incident raised concerns over the nuclear power plant, but despite causing a temporary halt to a cooling water pump, the problem was shortly resolved and no further issues have been reported. The power plant was devastated by a tsunami caused by an earthquake in 2011.
