Crane collapse at Nhava Sheva Port and
Typhoon Saola hits Taiwanese
 | | Typhoon Saola |
Typhoon Saola:
Typhoon Saola, the ninth typhoon of the Northwest Pacific storm season, hit Taiwan hard Thursday, causing multiple fatalities and bringing transportation to a halt. Dozens of flights were canceled at Taipei's main international airport, where heavy winds destroyed two jetways, and rail transport throughout the island was disrupted due to gale force winds and heavy rains.
The typhoon is expected to weaken before hitting the Fujian and Zheijiang provinces in southeast China early Friday morning.
Nhava Sheva Crane Collapse:
The recent collapse of a container crane at the Nhava Sheva Port has caused the container terminal to fall five days behind schedule. Officials connecting the Port of Nhava Sheva with ports on the US East Coast, said that ships operating under the fixed-day berthing window scheme are the worst affected due to low levels of productivity and extended stays.
