Last Monday (1.07) 40 construction workers were killed and at least 17 injured during a devastating fire in a warehouse owned by the logistics company "Korea 2000" in Icheon, an industrial city south of Seoul (Gyeonggi-do/province).
The fire was caused, according the daily newspaper Chosun Ilbo (1.09), by the lack of security precautions. An investigator assumed that the workers were forced to work in a "in a room filled with volatile gases."

And today - 'only'(!!) three days after the Icheon Fire Inferno - the S.K. (bourgeois) media realized and reported about the fact that at least 13 of the killed people were migrant workers, mainly from China...
