Traces of radioactive Cesium-137 have been measured along Norway’s border with Russia, it was revealed today.
The radiation levels are ‘clearly’ higher than normal, authorities have said, and the cause of the mysterious spike is unknown.
One fear is that it could relate to Russia’s Pankovo test site for the Burevestnik – a nuclear-powered, nuclear-armed cruise missile – on the Novaya Zemlya archipelago.
Tupperware Brands and some of its subsidiaries filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on Tuesday, the food container firm said in a statement.
The company, known for its trademark food storage containers, has been hit by dwindling sales in recent years.
Last year the New York-listed firm warned of “substantial doubt” about its ability to keep operating in light of its poor financial position.
“Over the last several years, the Company’s financial position has been severely impacted by the challenging macroeconomic environment,” president and CEO Laurie Ann Goldman said in a statement announcing the bankruptcy filing.
“As a result, we explored numerous strategic options and determined this is the best path forward,” added Goldman.
The company said it would seek court approval for a sale process for the business to protect its brand and “further advance Tupperware’s transformation into a digital-first, technology-led company.”
