Doctors say these workers are not currently showing any unusual symptoms. However, because the leaked substance contains the toxic substance phosgene, they must be monitored at the hospital for 24 hours to completely rule out any potential health risks.

The cause of the incident is under investigation, but preliminary findings suggest it may have stemmed from a technical malfunction or operational error.

Phosgene is a raw material used in the production of precursors for the pharmaceutical and pesticide industries.
