Two Japanese mothers and their sons who voluntarily evacuated nuclear accident-hit Fukushima Prefecture last year took part in an antinuclear demonstration in New York on Thursday.

During the march from a southern Manhattan park to near the U.N. headquarters, the families held signs saying "No More Fukushima."

Yuri Tomitsuka, 10, who relocated with his mother to Yokohama after the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, addressed a crowd at the park appealing for help.

"You may be thinking Fukushima's nuclear accident is ending, but it is not," he said. "Please help Japan."
