As a result of an explosion at a coal mine in China’s Shanxi province, 90 workers have died.
“Elchi” reports that, according to the Xinhua news agency, a gas-related explosion occurred in the morning at a coal mine in Qingyuan County, Changzhi.
According to preliminary information, 90 workers died in the mine where 247 people were working.
Search and rescue operations for workers trapped under the rubble are ongoing, and there are concerns that the death toll may rise.
The explosion at the coal mine is one of the deadliest mining accidents in China in recent years.
