Shikoku Electric Power Company restarted unit 3 of its Ikata nuclear power plant in Japan's Ehime Prefecture yesterday. The reactor - one of the few to have been restarted since the March 2011 accident at the Fukushima Daiichi plant - had been offline since December 2019 due to a periodic inspection and a subsequent court injunction.

The dispute over the facility in Ehime Prefecture centers on how resistant to earthquakes it is.

Lawyers file a series of lawsuits across the country seeking to void the results and conduct a do-over of Sundays lower house election due to vote weight disparities created by Japans rural-urban population imbalance.
