Marshall Islands nuclear test victims still seeking justice

Original: Marshall Islands: Eighty years on, victims of nuclear testing still seeking justice

Eighty years after nuclear testing began in the Marshall Islands, victims are still demanding justice and accountability. The UN human rights office has highlighted their ongoing campaign for recognition, compensation and cleanup of contaminated land. Survivors and descendants say health effects and displacement from programmes like those at Bikini Atoll remain unresolved, keeping the issue alive internationally.

Why now: The eightieth anniversary of the start of US nuclear testing in the Marshall Islands has renewed attention on unresolved demands for redress.
