Reactor, using seawater in a last-ditch effort to prevent a meltdown. sunday morning, tokyo electric power company says integrity of the containment vessel of reactor one has not been compromised, yet three people test positive for radiation exposure. monday afternoon, a second explosion, reactor three's roof and walls give way, injuring six people. but once again, officials say no significant radiation was leaked. in towns nearby, fear takes hold. >> translator: i'm deeply depressed. i want to know exactly what's going on at if nuclear plant. i'm scared. >> translator: i'm scared because i ca...

Power company, the owner of the fukushima daiichi plant, says integrity of the containment vessel of the reactor has not been compromised, yet three people test positive for radiation exposure. monday afternoon, a second explosion, reactor three's roof and walls give way, injuring six people. but once again, officials say no significant radiation was leaked. in towns nearby, fear takes hold. >> translator: i'm deeply depressed. i want to know exactly what's going on at the nuclear plant. i'm scared. >> translator: i'm scared because i can see the radiation. >> monday night, reactor two's cooli...

Proving really difficult. here's what we think is happening. reactor one, its outer building exploded on saturday. there's probably been a partial melting inside. and they're still pumping in seawater. reactor two, the most worrying, with an explosion here last night and crucially a potential breach inside it. the first possible damage to any of the reactors. it's thought that this device down below, which handles excess pressure, may have been breached. and this could be one source of leaking radiation. now, reactor three is also in trouble with an explosion of the outer building, maybe a par...

Getting hard information about the fate of the power station is proving really difficult. here's what we think is happening. reactor one, its outer building exploded on saturday. there's probably been a partial melting inside. and they're still pumping in seawater. reactor two, the most worrying, with an explosion here last night and crucially a potential breach inside it. the first possible damage to any of the reactors. it's thought that this device down below, which handles excess pressure, may have been breached. and this could be one source of leaking radiation. now, reactor three is also...

About, in terms of the physical structure right now, why there's so much concern. >> and tom, i'm just getting new information that there's a new fire in reactor number four. jim, this would be another -- it seems, jim, that the situation with this plant is just one thing after another. and the public statements being made by this nuclear company that runs the plant have been confusing at best. they just gave a press conference that a lot of our people here at cnn were monitoring. it sounded incredibly confusing, not really giving any straight answers, how much faith do you have in the public ...
