https://www.afinalwarning.com/533471.html (Natural News) More than 2,400 liters of “firefighting water” containing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) were released from a U.S. military facility in the southern Japanese island of Okinawa. Heavy rain brought the chemicals into bodies of water at Uruma city and other nearby locations. The June 10 incident also added to the chemicals that have accumulated in the city’s Tengan River, which already had high PFAS concentrations.
According to the Okinawan newspaper
Ryukyu Shimpo, the accidental release happened at the
U.S. Army‘s Kin Wan Petroleum, Oil and Lubricant Storage Facility. The concentration of PFAS in the water released is unknown, with the water believed to have emptied into the Tengan River and the sea. The Army has kept mum about the incident; however, U.S. military forces releasing toxic chemicals in Okinawa are a common occurrence.
