Post office in Futaba Town, Fukushima, damaged by nuclear power plant accident, reopens for the first time in 13 years. Futaba Post Office has relocated from its location before the nuclear accident to a location near JR Futaba Station and has resumed operations.
The evacuation order was lifted in some areas this year, and residents began returning home. A woman in her 80s who returned to town two months ago said, ``I came here to send some luggage. Up until now, there were no financial institutions, so I couldn't wait for them to reopen.''
