A man was taken out from under the rubble and was sent to intensive care. According to preliminary data, this is a security guard.
The explosion damaged glass in neighboring residential buildings, but, as the source writes, “no one was hurt” there.
Citing an “informed source”, the state agency writes that the explosion “could have been caused by a malfunction of the gas equipment.”
According to preliminary data, the gas-air mixture detonated due to a leak from faulty equipment.
