Blast kills one person at Barcelona port

Firefighters extinguished a blaze caused by the explosion which took place during maintenance work in a spot where methyl acetate — used as a solvent in glues, paints and nail polish removers — is stored, local emergency services wrote on X.

Several other people were treated for light injuries at the scene, they added.

In September two workers died and at least four others were injured after two cranes collapsed in the northern Spanish port of Gijon.
