SEOUL: South Korean police arrested on Thursday (Aug 24) at least 14 people who entered a building housing the Japanese embassy in Seoul during a protest against Tokyo's release of water from the Fukushima nuclear plant,

The protest came the day Japan began releasing treated radioactive water from the wrecked power plant into the Pacific Ocean, a polarising move that prompted fresh, fierce criticism from around the region.

"The sea is not Japan's trash bin," read one of the banners."Stop releasing contaminated water at once." A university student is detained while attempting to break into the Japanese embassy on the occasion of Japan releasing treated radioactive water from the wrecked Fukushima nuclear power plant into the Pacific Ocean, in Seoul, South Korea, on Aug 24, 2023. The sign reads "The ocean is not a trash bin for Japan!!"
