Meltdowns may have occurred in two reactors: Japan govt
Japan's top government spokesman Yukio Edano said Sunday that radioactive meltdowns may have occurred in two reactors of the quake-hit Fukushima nuclear plant. Asked in a press conference whether meltdowns had occurred, Edano said "we are acting on the assumption that there is a high possibility that one has occurred" in the plant's number-one reactor.
"As for the number-three reactor, we are acting on the assumption that it is possible," he said.
