Tata Steel UK has reported a fire incident at its Port Talbot factory on Wednesday night, and no casualties have been reported.
The Mid and West Wales Fire Service attended the Port Talbot site last night at around 8 pm to deal with a fire at one of the site’s processing lines. All personnel were accounted for and evacuated from the area safely, said the company in a statement.
At this time, the emergency services remain on site and are working with local teams to completely extinguish the fire, it said.
The incident is not related to the safe and successful demolition of the empty, redundant gas holder earlier yesterday evening, the company added.
