"Seoul's Protest: South Koreans Unite Against Japan's Nuclear Wastewater Release"

Hundreds of South Koreans rallied in Seoul to protest against Japan's plans to release treated nuclear wastewater from the tsunami-damaged Fukushima nuclear power plant into the sea. The International Atomic Energy Agency approved the discharge plans, stating that it would meet safety standards with minimal environmental and health impacts. South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol's government has supported the release, aiming to repair strained ties with Japan amid North Korean nuclear threats. South Korea has conducted extensive tests on seafood and beaches to address concerns of contamination. Liberal opposition lawmakers plan to file a complaint with the UN Human Rights Council, questioning the IAEA's review of the risks.
