A gas explosion ripped through a children's hospital in Mexico on Thursday. At least one woman dead and 54 more people, including 22 children injured in this explosion. The mayor said that the Firefighters toiled in the rubble of the maternity and children's hospital, which partly collapsed after a gas tanker truck blew up outside.
“We have to conduct an evacuation for safety because a lot of the people are babies in the crib area,” Mayor Miguel Angel Mancera told to MVS Radio. He said that he had received a report of a person who appears to have died, a woman found under rubble.
He said that the injured were not in serious condition and were being transferred to other hospitals. Television images showed people with bloodied faces being carried to ambulances. He said that around 40 per cent of the hospital was torn down.
