Nuclear disaster-hit village reclassified into 3 areas

IITATE, Japan - Grass is being cut in the Nagadoro district of Iitate village, Fukushima Prefecture, on July 16, 2012, with a dosimeter (front) showing radiation levels of more than nine microsieverts per hour, before the government locks fences on roads leading to the district at midnight. The village, nearly all of whose residents have been evacuated since the March 2011 nuclear accident, was reclassified July 17 into three areas with varying levels of accessibility. Due to the high level of radiation exposure, the Nagadoro district was classified as "an area difficult to return to" for a long period of time.
