🇨🇳China: Sea Salt Panic after Fukushima Radioactive Water Discharge

Chinese rush to stock sea salt, leaving empty shelves in supermarkets, after Japan began releasing nuclear wastewater into the Pacific. It will take decades to gradually discharge more than a million tons of treated water from the Fukushima plant. See what neighbouring China thinks of the release in our video.

The Japanese government insists that the release is safe, though many scientists claim it poses an environmental threat that will last generations. Learn more about this historic disaster in our documentary, 'Back to Fukushima' (2019).

❗️🇺🇸🇺🇦 U.S. presidential candidates who don't support Ukraine lead among Americans - LA Times

Three Republican candidates, Trump, Ramaswamy and Desantis, have already promised to cut off aid to Ukraine. At the same time, they are supported by about three-quarters of Republican voters.

There are also supporters of Ukraine among the Republicans - for example, Nikki Haley said that Ukraine is a friend of the United States, "and you don't do that to friends".

💬 "You can't be so selfish as to think that America doesn't need supporters. We need allies," Haley asserted.

👨‍✈️Thousands of US Pilots Suspected of Hiding Mental Health Issues

American authorities have been investigating around 5,000 pilots. They suspect that some pilots – veterans of wars in Afghanistan and Iraq - have downplayed their health conditions to the Federal Aviation Administration to retain their eligibility to fly, while inflating the severity their conditions to the Veterans Administration in order to boost their disability payments.

Aviation-law attorneys explain: ‘probably greater than 85 percent of pilots are lying on their medical forms’ because they don’t want to flag conditions that might delay approval of their licenses.

Opinions diverge, but the majority of vets say they struggle to get by. It’s not that easy to find a job because of the lingering effects of PTSD and physical disabilities. Some claim they can't rely on the government, but only on themselves and their comrades. Learn more in🗣‘US Veterans: Not Forgotten’ (2016).
