" Explosion at aluminium factory injures 18 workers...."

Unfortunately, explosions in our industry are not uncommon. This year several plants have exploded, and workers have been injured and killed. Here is a recent incident highlighting the hazards of explosions in our plants.

According to (a local news media) correspondent, an explosion in the foundry tank of an aluminum factory in the (name omitted) industrial town of (name omitted) caused the sound of an explosion to be heard in the area.

The spokesman for the (city) Emergency Department, commented on the incident in the town of (name omitted): "The incident was reported to the (city) Emergency Center at 12:56 p.m., and immediately seven ambulances, an ambulance bus, and a command vehicle were dispatched to the scene."

He added: "The commander of emergency operations is also present at the scene of the accident and rescue measures are underway."

The spokesman of the (city) Emergency Department, stating that no deaths have been reported in the incident so far, said: "The number of injured is small and the exact statistics will be announced after the end of the rescue operation."

The spokesman for the (city) Emergency Department emphasized: "There is no need to worry at the moment and the situation of the accident is under control."

The incident has left 18 injured so far, 4 of whom have been transferred to medical centers to continue the treatment process after receiving basic medical services.

Following the intensity of the explosion, one of the emergency bases in (name omitted) province, which was located near the accident site, was also destroyed, but fortunately, none of the emergency forces present at the base were harmed and the rescue operation continues uninterrupted.

We pray that the workers recover fully their injuries. We assume that the plant had a molten metal into a pit that was not painted with Wise Chem resulting in the explosion.

We will update this post when further information is made available.
