Worker killed during maintenance at Buenos Aires' Aeroparque Jorge Newbery

A maintenance worker died on Wednesday at Aeroparque Jorge Newbery in Buenos Aires while performing technical tasks in a restricted area of the terminal. The employee, employed by a subcontractor, was working on a gas‑related installation when the incident occurred; a second worker was injured but is now out of danger. Judicial and airport authorities have opened an investigation to determine whether the fatality resulted from technical failure, procedural errors or environmental factors. The affected zone was isolated, but flight operations continued with minimal disruption, and security controls in technical areas have been reinforced pending the inquiry.
