Malawi: One worker has died and three others have been injured at the Shayona Cement Factory in Kasungu. Hot clinker caused the injuries due to an open door at the plant according to local media. Three of the injured workers, including the deceased worker, were from Malawi. The fourth worker was from India.

"When they switched on the furnace, the cement stone busted from the clinker and produced hot ashes which covered them. One died in the process of receiving treatment, while the other three are in critical condition," said local police.
