The helicopters are gone now, in order to minimize the crews' exposure to radiation - NHK

Water spraying operations have been temporarily suspended and helicopters have left the area of the Fukushima Daiichi plant, NHK reports. A Tokyo police unit is set to use water cannon vehicles to continue cooling operations. The Japanese defense minister is about to give an update on how the water drops went.

The power supply to the stricken Japanese nuclear plant could partially resume in the afternoon, the Kyodo agency reports, making it possible to use some of the plant's cooling pumps.
