Contaminated water leaks from Fukushima nuclear plant
Tepco said the water leak at the treatment system was found on Sunday morning
Contaminated water has leaked from a treatment system at Japan's crippled Fukushima nuclear plant, with some potentially entering the sea, the plant's operator says.
Workers found the leak - caused by a crack in a concrete foundation - on Sunday morning.
Tepco said some 45 cubic metres (1,590 cubic feet) of water had escaped before sandbags blocked the leak.
