Koichi Yamada offers a prayer for his friend Kenichi Sato, who was killed by the 2011 tsunami, at Sato’s destroyed car in the tsunami-devastated Ukedo area of Namie, in northern Japan’s Fukushima prefecture, three miles north of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. A 9.0 earthquake struck off the coast of Japan on March 11th, 2011, followed by a tsunami that triggered the nation’s worst nuclear accident at Fukushima Daiichi. |
