An explosion at the Port of Rotterdam in the Netherlands killed at least one person and injured several others on Thursday, August 13, Dutch police said. The blast occurred at an oil facility operated by Gunvor Energy in the sprawling Rotterdam port, Europe's largest port. Emergency services responded to the scene as several injured people were taken to hospital. Police said investigators, forensic teams and the Dutch labour inspectorate were working to determine what caused the explosion, while keeping all possibilities open. Authorities later ruled out a separate power failure and transformer fire in another part of the port as being linked to the blast. #rotterdam #rotterdamport #netherlands #dutch #explosion #portexplosion #blast #breakingnews #worldnews #europe #oilterminal #gunvor #oilfacility #dutchnews #emergency #industrialaccident #news #timesnowworld Stay connected with Times Now World for real-time global news and analysis: 🌐 Read full coverage: https://www.timesnownews.
