After the incident was reported, health, police and fire brigade teams were dispatched to the area. The teams arrived at the scene in a short time and inspected the area to find out whether there were any injuries. In addition, thermal and security camera checks were made. The absence of workers and crane operators at the time of the accident prevented a major disaster.

 

 

Moments of horror were captured moment by moment on the employees’ phone cameras. The moment when the ship could not stop and overturned the cranes and the employees screamed in fear were captured on camera.
