Worker crushed to death by falling containers at India's Jawaharlal Nehru Port

The two victims were reportedly standing on one of the trucks and were helping load and unload containers from other vessels using a quay crane when they became trapped underneath one of the fallen boxes.

One victim, a 19-year-old male, was pronounced dead on arrival at the Indira Gandhi Rural Government Hospital in nearby Uran while the other worker, aged 30, was brought to Medicover Hospital in Kharghar.

A spokesperson for the Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority said that an investigation is already underway and that all necessary support has been extended to those affected by the tragedy.
