New nuclear accident in Western Japan as typhoon batters the country

While the destroyed Fukushima Daichi Nuclear plant braces for a likely direct hit of a powerful typhoon, known as number 18, that has already caused major radioactive water overflow to the ocean, another nuclear accident threatens Japan: Monju nuclear power plant's fast breeder has suddenly stopped and crews can't access the site because of landslides blocking the only road. This nuclear plant is located at Tsuruga, near Kyoto.

Consequences are unknown at the moment.
