An important news is coming out from Pakistan. A major explosion has occurred in Karachi, the major city of the country. At least 16 people are reported to have been killed. According to reports, the blast in Karachi, Pakistan was caused by a suspected gas leak. There is also news that around 14 people were injured in the blast. Let us explore the details of this incident so far.
According to the police, an explosion occurred in a residential building in Karachi on Thursday morning. The blast took place around 4:30 am on the first floor of a building located in Old Soldier Bazar area. At that time everyone was waking up for Sehri. It is worth noting that today is the first day of Ramadan in Pakistan. Police have said that the cause of the explosion was apparently a gas leak.
The police have said that 14 bodies have been recovered from the blast site so far. Fourteen injured are undergoing treatment in the hospital. A ruined part of the building also collapsed due to the blast. The fire service said they were still searching the building for bodies or survivors. The dead include nine children between the ages of two and 17. Seven children are also among the injured.
According to reports, the people of Karachi, Pakistan’s largest city, are struggling with gas shortage. As a result, many households, especially in low-income residential areas, use LPG gas cylinders in their homes. This is the second major fire in Karachi in recent times. Last month, a fire broke out in the basement of Gul Shopping Plaza, a wholesale and retail market in Karachi’s Sadar area. At least 79 people were killed and many others injured in the accident.
