We have just published a post to do with serious incident that occurred in East Palestine, Ohio. We are now learning more about another event — this time in Montana. The incident, which took place on June 24, 2023, was caused by a bridge collapse. Multiple cars, some containing hazardous chemicals, fell into the Yellowstone River.

A CNN report states that ‘Multiple tank cars are leaking “petroleum products” ’. There are no reported injuries.
