Engineers at Japan's stricken Fukushima nuclear power plant have managed to lay a cable to reactor 2, the UN's nuclear watchdog reports.

Restoring power should enable engineers to restart the pumps which send coolant over the reactor.

Workers at Fukushima have been battling to prevent fuel in the reactors from overheating since Friday's magnitude 9.0 quake and subsequent tsunami.

Japan is facing mounting humanitarian and nuclear emergencies as the death toll from the earthquake and subsequent tsunami on Friday is rising rapidly as relief efforts intensify.
The disaster has left more than 10,000 people dead, many thousands homeless and millions without water, power, heat or transportation.
Nuclear hazards have also added to the problems as two reactors at Japan's Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant exploded, raising fears of leaking radiations and a nuclear meltdown, which will bring added health and environmental problems.

Arsenal avoided another defeat, which appeared to be their fate for two-thirds of the match, but they have now won only one of their past six Рand that was against Leyton Orient. This was very much a case of two points dropped on a day when Manchester United won to extend their lead at the top of the table to five. Ars̬ne Wenger and his team still have a game in hand, but on recent evidence it would be reckless to gamble on them taking maximum advantage.

Anti-Gaddafi rebels are calling on the international community for air strikes on Libya, but so far the Obama administration, in line with the EU and Nato, has shied away from military action.
