A chemical explosion at a cargo warehouse in Brazil has spread toxic gas over the Port of Santos, Brazil’s largest port.
Damage has been widespread with cargo handling operations halted and dock works suspended, as well as the closure of shipping channels.
The effects are being felt across the city with people evacuated from their homes, whilst others have taken to hospital for chemical burns and breathing difficulties.
