Nuclear fallout from tsunami | 60 Minutes Australia

The strongest earthquake since 2011 has hit Russia's east coast at a magnitude of 8.8, triggering tsunami warnings for multiple Pacific nations, including an immediate evacuation of the previously affected area of Fukushima in Japan.

That 2011 undersea earthquake 72km east of Japan recorded a 9.0 magnitude, and was followed by a devastating tsunami that levelled the coastal town of Fukushima and hit its nuclear power plant. The fallout is expected to last for generations.
