TOKYO, May 5 (AFP): Workers entered a reactor building at Japan's Fukushima nuclear plant today for the first time since an explosion hit the facility a day after the March 11 tsunami and quake, officials said.
Wearing gas masks and protective suits with oxygen tanks on their backs, two workers stepped into the building to gauge radiation levels, said officials from operator Tokyo Electric Power Co (TEPCO).
