At least five dead and one injured after explosion at a chemical plant near Wuhan
An explosion at a chemical plant near the city of Wuhan in central China has killed at least five people and wounded one, according to local officials.
The blast took place at around 2.15pm local time today at an industrial park in the central Chinese city Tianmen, west of the provincial capital Wuhan, when the manufacturer’s equipment was being tested.
The injured resident has been taken to a hospital for treatment while rescue efforts are ongoing, a government notice says.
Footage filmed by witnesses shows thick yellow smoke billowing into the sky as a person was lying on a stretcher while being carried out from a wrecked building.
Other media reports say that the chemical factory has also received multiple complaints from local residents for releasing gases that caused irritation.
Last month, another huge explosion at a chemical plant in Hubei's Xiantao city killed six people and injured four. The authorities said the incident was caused by 'irregular behaviour' by the operators and a lack of risk identification.
Industrial accidents are common in China, where safety regulations are often poorly enforced.
In March last year, a blast at a chemical plant in eastern Jiangsu province killed 78 people and injured hundreds. Source
