One civilian was killed and more than 30 firefighters and emergency personnel were injured after a violent explosion tore through a barge and structure at a Staten Island shipyard on Friday afternoon. The incident began around 3:30 p.m. as a routine emergency response to reports of two workers trapped in a confined space on Richmond Terrace. While active search-and-rescue operations were underway inside and adjacent to the structure, a massive blast occurred, unleashing a powerful energy wave that left a fire marshal in critical condition and dozens of first responders hospitalized. More than 200 emergency personnel deployed to combat the multi-alarm blaze, which remains under federal and local investigation to determine whether hazardous materials or confined space conditions triggered the disaster. #newyorkexplosion #statenisland #fdny #shipyardblast #breakingnews #firefightersinjured #emergencymedical #newyorkcity #bargefire #rescuetrap In this Times Now World News report, we bre
