Russian nuclear fuel dump 'in danger of exploding'
A nuclear waste dump in Arctic Russia may be in danger of exploding because of corrosion caused by salt water in enormous storage tanks, the Norwegian environmental group Bellona warned today.
The three tanks are used to store spent nuclear fuel rods at Andreeva Bay, on the Kola Peninsula of north-western Russia, just 28 miles from the Norwegian border, the Oslo-based group said in a statement.
