| (32 minutes later) | |
| At least 19 people were injured when three huge blasts rocked an explosives-manufacturing plant in the city of Dzerzhinsk in European Russia. Local authorities have warned that further explosions could yet happen. | |
| The blasts were so powerful that people even heard them in Bogorodsk, another city, some 15 km away. Meanwhile, residents in Dzershinsk saw large plumes of grey smoke rising above the city streets. Witnesses said that the shockwave from the explosions shattered windows in nearby buildings. | |
| The “violations in the technological processes” inside the plant may have been the likely reasons of the incident, according to officials. The series of the blasts occurred in the part of the plant that was making TNT, with its building said to be completely demolished. | The “violations in the technological processes” inside the plant may have been the likely reasons of the incident, according to officials.
