    A fire is reported in a large construction machine in under-construction Boknafjord tunnel of Rogfast project. Reportedly the machine is 4-5 kilometers inside the tunnel. The fire department decided not to enter the tunnels because of the risks. NRK reports luckily the tunnel has no explosives inside during the fire. The tunnel is part of the Rogfast tunnel system which will be the longest subsea tunnel when completed in 2033.
