Furnace explosion at Chinese-owned nickel plant in Indonesia kills 13
A blast in a Chinese-owned nickel plant on Indonesia's Sulawesi island killed 13 workers and injured dozens on Sunday, according to police and a company official.
It was the latest of a series of deadly incidents at nickel smelting plants in Indonesia that are part of China's ambitious transnational development program known as the Belt and Road Initiative.
Nickel is a key component in global battery production for electric vehicles.
At least four Chinese and nine Indonesian workers died when the furnace exploded while they were repairing it, said Central Sulawesi police chief Agus Nugroho.
