flaring around a sex related scandal involving a senator questions are raised if news outlets are turning into gossip outlets. a very warm welcome to you this is on the line from moscow and i'm sure a highly toxic radioactive material has been detected in groundwater and seawater cycles near the fukushima nuclear facility in japan the element known as strong has been found in concentrations two hundred times over the safety limit and is known to cause a bone cancer and. meanwhile the japan's health ministry says the number of workers exposed to dangerous levels of radiation has now risen to eight. as being at the fukushima city to measure. education levels as well he just got. here we're eighty
10:02 am
kilometers away and the radiation levels in this area in many many places in many instances are. really close because if you look at a map of where fukushima city is in relation to the actual nuclear facility that's plant number one where a lot of that radiation. but dating from the winds are bringing that radiation in to fukushima city and the rain and the wind is blowing the radiation in this direction so we were at a spot where the radiation levels were one thousand times what is considered to be a safe dosage so. very very dangerous levels and so scientists that we're working with today from different universities are working together on projects to try to figure out ways to use a simple methods to actually clean that radiation up and these guys actually tell you. are working could be can't contaminate the soil right now.
10:03 am
and as you can see these two gentlemen are wearing any protective clothing the scientists are so one of the concerns is that you can actually have one spot which it's only thirty times the accepted normal levels and then you go to another spot which is just a metre away and it can jump to five hundred to a thousand times depending on where rainwater and might have collected one of the concerns of course is that grass is. filter for nuclear ready at the material and are drawn to grassy places so when they go to those areas they could actually be absorbing the radiation from the grass as well so what's interesting is this area that we're in right now is considered a safe area it is not considered a mandatory evacuation area but authorities are looking into to see whether it should be considered evacuation or at least within the city should be evacuated because of need. if you will where the radiation is just charts.
10:04 am
all the work is nothing fukushima nuclear plant running out of the ability to store radioactive water meaning any leak may slow the recovery effort or even undermine it according to james the osaka based on its own independent website. any new leaks of any kind are going to be an incredible burden on the efforts that are already underway to try to clean up the water or decontaminated because they are now running out of space to actually store the contaminated water in the fukushima in the immediate vicinity of the planet and i believe within two weeks they're actually going to run out of space so they're trying to get a system online for treating the water but apparently they test for that it's going to be pushed back another few days it's already been pushed back from last friday and there is no such thing as a safe level of radiation exposure that any level of radiation exposure increases
10:05 am
the risk of cancer and however negligible that risk may be with any particular person on any particular date any particular spot when it's averaged out over a large population like is living in the fukushima region unfortunately means there will be over time an increase in in cancer rates there and it's really just a question of how many. of the fukushima nuclear crisis was also sent shock waves through the japanese motor industry and its reputation that contaminated vehicles could be heading out to the world's car market and potential buyers and are thinking twice before making their way to a japanese car showrooms are things like. i'll has been contemplating a change of her car for months a fan of japanese vehicles she wanted to upgrade her old fraud or two when you were model but her car dealing friend said it was not the right time the stronger producers could also yes i was told privately that all new japanese cars are radioactive because of the fukushima disaster the shipment was supposedly blocked
10:06 am
by the authorities extra day or so hard but unofficial dealers bribe them and got those cars on to the streets officials at the poor left of our question whether there had been any contaminates of course here after the japanese fallout these off roaders worship in before the fukushima disaster in japan and even they were checked for radiation or for it is claimed there's absolutely no chance of contaminated growth making their way onto the territory is it please because the rights to us transiting through greek and turkish ports if anything was wrong it would have been spotted there in the first place which was to double check all vehicles for any my logical fretless images however ecologist say these checks may not be enough to determine radiation growing is a radioactive particles are very small and can disperse all around the vehicle they can be found in filters radiators inside small that's why it's very difficult to

detect them with a regular guy get the disposal of the customs units experts say the sale of contaminated steel is not something new for ukraine these shorts were filmed inside the chernobyl exclusion zone several years ago scavengers stealing contaminated radiators from the ghost town of one costs around twenty dollars on the black market tens of thousands have been removed from this so. these contaminated metal can be recycled and used for a new thing from rails to vehicles without losing its radioactivity but usually it's used for making industrial pipes and ukraine is its. one of the leaders in its production of radioactive particles may be small but are still gravely dangerous a person subjected to them for a lengthy period can experience various long diseases and even cancer so use the temptation to buy a new japanese car is too hard to resist experts advise turning to professionals to

check whether it is safe let's see russians to see reporting from i just and each of us in ukraine. another chernobyl nuclear power plant in ukraine was the scene of the world's worst nuclear accident but many fear that the crisis at fukushima may soon surpass it check out the once prosperous soviet city of put it near the infamous atomic facility to find out how it looks nowadays a special report marking the twenty fifth anniversary of the disaster is available twenty four seven at our website r.t. dot com just look for it in the documentary section. with r.t. now europe is seeing a surge in anti israeli settlement with a growing clamor for governments to stop turning a blind eye to the occupation of palestinian land activists say they want action not words and are demanding an embargo on exports from illegal settlements but as artie's and daniel bushell reports politicians are remaining tight lipped on the

but also disastrous for israel itself that's according to the e.u. high representative for foreign affairs also use exclusive interview with baroness catherine ashton is coming your way in about twenty minutes time but for now here's a quick preview. we're very consistent in saying what needs to happen is that the israelis need to open the borders with guards are under a lot of people and goods to move freely now i recognize the importance of the security situation for israel we've always done not but it seems to me a position that's not tenable where you have the inability to get the economy moving in gaza and one of the things i've been saying to the israelis for some time is it's in their interest to see economic growth and development and also lots of small businesses you know that could really do well lots of people who want jobs eighty percent of people in gaza receive today so many young people who don't have a future and part of the answer to that part of making sure that we have security
