00:00 Before watching the video, let me remind you that there is more content on the Hotpoint website.
00:04 A bridge in Baltimore, the port of the East Coast of the United States,
00:07 was hit by a boat on Tuesday morning.
00:11 Eight maintenance workers who were working on the bridge collapsed.
00:15 Two people were rescued, two people died, and four people are still missing.
00:20 According to BBC,
00:22 the river has accumulated a lot of water,
00:25 and the river is muddy.
00:27 The visibility is only 30 to 60 centimeters.
00:29 So the rescue operation was forced to be suspended.
00:32 The Mayor of Maryland, Moore, said
00:34 that it is difficult for rescue workers to dive into the water.
00:36 They need to wait until the river is better
00:38 before they can resume the rescue operation.
00:40 After a boat hit the bridge in Baltimore,
00:45 the search and rescue team moved the wreckage and the boat
00:49 to the local government.
00:51 Yesterday, the Mayor of Maryland, Moore,
00:53 described the situation after the scene inspection.
00:55 The collapse of the bridge is an economic disaster.
00:57 It is a very difficult task to rebuild the bridge.
01:01 To see shipping containers that were ripped in half
01:04 as if they were paper mache.
01:05 With a salvage operation this complex,
01:08 and frankly, with a salvage operation this unprecedented,
01:11 you need to plan for every single moment.
01:13 And every time you take action to move a piece of wreckage,
01:17 you understand that that requires you to reassess the situation.
01:20 Moore also said that the U.S. Navy is continuing to transport
01:22 four large heavy aircraft to the scene of the incident
01:25 to assist in cleaning up the large wreckage.
01:27 But since a heavy aircraft can only lift about 1,000 tons of objects,
01:31 the weight of the wreckage on the cargo ship
01:33 is estimated to weigh 3,000 to 4,000 tons.
01:35 Therefore, the workers need to cut the large wreckage into small pieces
01:38 before they can be removed.
01:40 Eight maintenance workers who collided in the collapse of the bridge
01:44 are all workers from other cities.
01:46 So a large number of foreign construction workers
01:48 gathered at the Baltimore-based Immigration and Concentration Organization yesterday
01:52 to mourn the victims of the collapse of the bridge.
01:55 At the same time, they also hope that this incident
01:57 will call on the outside world to pay attention to the risks they face at work.
02:01 My work and so many others' is that large structures grow,
02:05 houses, the economy of this country.
02:07 But why don't our dreams grow,
02:09 our dignity as humans,
02:11 our well-being?
02:12 Tragedies are those who fall into the darkness suffering.
