Crevedia gas station explosion details and rescue response
Reports from a local television channel indicate that 55 people were injured in a fire and subsequent blaze at a gas station in Crevedia, Romania. The outlet Digi24 cited anonymous sources within recovery services in its coverage.
According to the channel, the list of victims included 39 firefighters along with two gendarmes and two police officers. The article notes that 51 victims were hospitalized during the aftermath.
Sources described that 10 hospitalized patients required intubation, a medical procedure where a tube is placed into the windpipe to ensure rapid delivery of air to the lungs.
The incident began at an LPG station in Crevedia on the night of August 27, when four explosions occurred. Initial reports identified one person dead and 46 injured, which included 26 rescuers. Firefighters and other responders worked to bring the blaze under control.
Subsequently, a fire broke out in a plastic hangar near a weapons factory in Crevedia, adding to the emergency response efforts.
Earlier footage from Sudan’s capital appeared in the coverage, suggesting an unrelated or external reference in the shared video material. This detail is noted for context in ongoing and evolving reporting. Source: Digi24.
