11 Killed In Factory Explosion

11 workers of a sugar factory have been killed following an explosion at the factory which is located in Tanzania.ย The victims included three foreign nationals, police said.

The explosion which happened on Thursday, May 23, 2024, was caused by an electrical fault. The fault caused a steam pipe to burst as a technical team was initiating machines to start production for the day at the privately owned Mtibwa Sugar Factory. Mtibwa is located in the Morogoro region in eastern Tanzania.

The three foreigners were from neighbouring Kenya, Brazil and India. Two other workers were injured in the blast and were treated at the Morogoro hospital. The doctor in charge there, David Ruchamisa, said they were later rushed to the regional capital, Dodoma, for further treatment.

Mtibwa is one of the country’s major sugar producing factories, producing at least 70,000 metric tons of sugar annually, according to government data.

    Today, I went to the beachfront with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!

    I do like the way you have presented this situation and it does indeed supply me some fodder for consideration. Nevertheless, through what precisely I have witnessed, I really hope as the actual remarks pack on that people keep on point and not get started upon a soap box associated with some other news of the day. Anyway, thank you for this exceptional point and although I do not go along with it in totality, I value the standpoint.
