The Independent South Koreans protested against planned discharge of wastewater from Fukushima.
The UN watchdog on Tuesday green signalled Japan to release more than 1 million metric tons of water into the Pacific that was used to cool damaged reactors at the power plant hit by an earthquake and a tsunami in 2011.
Seoul, which has been critical of Tokyo's plans, said it respects the conclusions of the two-year-long safety review by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) that found Japan's plans were consistent with global safety standards. The watchdog said it would have a “negligible radiological impact on people and the environment”.
