Protesters have rallied outside the Sendai nuclear power plant in southwestern Japan, as workers began loading fuel into a reactor.
About 100 protesters, including local residents and anti-nuclear activists in and outside Kagoshima Prefecture, gathered outside the Sendai plant on Tuesday.
The plant's operator halted the operation of No.1 reactor after the nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi plant in 2011. The utility plans to restart the reactor in mid-August.
Among the protesters was Ryoko Torihara, who heads an anti-nuclear power group. Torihara said what happened in Fukushima could also happen at the Sendai plant.
She stressed that reactors at the Sendai plant should never be restarted for the sake of future generations.
One of the participants read out a statement expressing deep anger at Kyushu Electric Power Company, which operates the Sendai plant.
The protesters criticized the utility for its hardened attitude. They accuse it of ignoring the public's desire for a society free from nuclear power generation.
Standing at the front gate, where more than 20 guards were positioned, they shouted that the company should listen to the voices of local people.
