This morning, a major explosion occurred at Ningbo-Zhoushan port in China, one of the largest and busiest ports globally. The explosion is believed to have been caused by a container of dangerous goods that had been loaded at Shanghai before detonating at the port.
The incident has led to significant disruptions in port operations, and all shipments from this port will be delayed for several days.
