Impact verdict
Low impact. Current reporting supports a single-site industrial fire with one worker fatality and two smoke-affected individuals, but without disclosed insured values, property damage inventory, business interruption figures, off-site contamination, or evidence of international market participation. On the available evidence, no credible route to USD 100m insured loss is established, keeping expected market impact low.
