Tokyo nuke cloud crisis

Tokyo nuke cloud crisis

JAPAN is teetering on the brink of nuclear catastrophe amid fears a radioactive cloud could envelop Tokyo's 13million residents.

The Foreign Office warned Brits to avoid the capital as it was feared a SECOND nuclear reactor was heading for meltdown after Friday's devastating earthquake and tsunami.

And there were heightened concerns early today following a hydrogen blast 170 miles north of Tokyo at the stricken Fukushima nuclear plant.

Tokyo Electric Power Company said 11 workers were injured after the explosion. Seven people were also reported as missing.
