Multiple recent construction site accidents highlight ongoing safety concerns in the industry. In Nanjing, China, a worker narrowly escaped death when a 22-story crane collapsed just feet from him; despite the dramatic incident, no injuries were reported and authorities continue to investigate the cause. Separately, a tragic accident in Żabbar resulted in the death of a 40-year-old worker who fell from a five-story height, prompting investigations by local authorities. Additionally, a laborer in Kuching is in critical condition after being electrocuted when a crane at his site came into contact with an overhead power line. These incidents underscore the persistent risks construction workers face globally and the urgent need for rigorous safety oversight.
