March 10, Fineko/abc.az. Japanese automobile company Toyota Motor will be forced to suspend operation of another assembly line because of a recent explosion at a factory where components for the concern were manufactured, ABC.AZ reports, referring to Kyodo news agency.

On March 6, an explosion of an industrial dust collector occurred at a factory in Aichi Prefecture, which manufactures components for the Toyota carmaker. As a result of the incident, one person was killed and several others were injured.

Due to a failure in the supply of parts, it was initially decided to stop three assembly lines at two enterprises in Aichi Prefecture from March 10. However, it later became clear that Toyota would have to stop another assembly line at the Kyoto plant where Toyota Probox cars are manufactured.

It is not yet known when the company will be able to restart the stopped assembly lines.
