The controversial release of treated radioactive water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan has just begun.

The dumping in the Pacific Ocean comes 12 years after the earthquake and tsunami which destroyed nuclear reactors there.
The Japanese government and the UN’s nuclear watchdog say it’s safe to release more than a million tonnes of cooling water.
But Japanese fishermen as well as China and some Pacific Island nations all disagree.
