Radiation levels in some areas around Japan's Fukushima nuclear plant are 1,600 times higher than normal. So says the International Atomic Energy Agency. It comes as engineers resumed the struggle to cool down reactors after smoke stalled repair works at the facility. Meanwhile, the nuclear crisis in Japan has evoked fears that a new atomic catastrophe could devastate the country. The only nation to ever feel the force of a nuclear weapon, Japan still remembers the horror of the event 65 years on.
