TWO fires have disrupted operations at Durban container port in South Africa, reports container-news.com, of Jacksonville and Athens.
State-owned ports and rail operator Transnet declared that it was investigating the cause of the fire that broke out inside a container in the stacking area of Pier 2 in Durban Container Terminal.
The flames spread to three other containers in the stacking area and emergency services extinguished the fire promptly.
Operations at berths 108 and 109 were suspended until the scene was cleared, while no injuries were reported.
The incident happened two days after another container from the same consignment burst into flames and was put out by emergency services.
The cause of this fire is also being probed by Transnet.
