Final Victim Recovered from Boiler Tower Collapse in Ulsan


(MENAFN) South Korean officials have retrieved the seventh and last victim from under a fallen boiler tower at a thermal power facility in the southeastern metropolis of Ulsan, according to a news agency on Friday.

The structure caved in on Nov. 6, entrapping seven laborers. Authorities had located six of the bodies in the days immediately after the incident.

The boiler tower, which had been inactive since 2021 following four decades of operation, was undergoing dismantlement at the moment it collapsed.

On Tuesday, officials brought down two more boiler towers at the same thermal power site to support efforts to find three workers who remained unaccounted for beneath a third collapsed tower.
