The Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations said on the 22nd that a fire and explosion accident occurred in a factory in Ryazan Oblast in southeastern Russia on the same day, causing all 17 people at the scene to die.
It is reported that the explosion and fire occurred in the factory's gunpowder production workshop, with an area of 160 square meters. At present, the search and rescue work at the scene of the accident has been completed, and rescuers have found the remains of the last victim in the rubble.
