At least 13 people were killed in an explosion at a chemical plant in the Pakistani city of Faisalabad, located in the eastern province of Punjab. This was announced on November 21 by Samaa TV.

"A tragic boiler explosion near the Malikpur chemical plant in Faisalabad claimed the lives of 13 people, including three children and two women," the publication says.

As a result of a powerful explosion, a fire broke out, which led to a partial collapse of the building. Four children and two women were among the dead. It is specified that there may be victims under the rubble, and therefore rescue operations are continuing. The blast wave damaged at least 10 nearby residential buildings.

Law enforcement agencies have launched an investigation into the incident to determine the causes.

Earlier, on November 7, it was reported that dozens of people were injured and hospitalized as a result of an explosion that occurred during Friday prayers at a mosque located on the territory of a school complex in Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia. The police launched an investigation into the incident.
