Tokyo’s High Court found the government of Japan not liable Tuesday for damages related to the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster and associated mass evacuations, leaving responsibility solely with plant operator the Tokyo Electric Power Co. (TEPCO).

The ruling also reduced the damages amounts of a previous court order from US$414,400 to US$165,000 for 44 of 47 petitioners.
