This chain reaction explosion at a fireworks market is dazzling but deadly.
“The cause of the explosion is unknown, but sources preliminarily claimed that gunpowder from the fireworks ignited the explosion. Up to 300 tonnes of fireworks were reported to have been present at the market. The explosion occurred at approximately 15:00 CST (21:00 UTC). As of 24 December, at least 36 people died, with at least 84 more injured. Of the dead, 26 died at the site of the explosion and the remaining at the hospital. Of the injured, 46 individuals were hospitalized, five of whom were in critical condition.
Six children were among the injured, including a girl with burns to over 90% of her body. Once they were stable and guardians had been contacted, these children were planned to be transferred to Shriners Hospital for Children in Galveston, Texas, United States, to be treated. Nearby homes were damaged significantly and much of the market was leveled in the explosion.”
