“An explosion was heard in the courtyard of the Lung Hospital in the city of Troyan and the windows shook. We went out to the terrace, there was a fire and a hiss from a gas leak. We called 112 and the firefighters responded very quickly. I heard it’s from oxygen cylinders, “writes Lilia Videlova.
NOVA asked the mayor of the city Donka Mihaylova for more information. He confirmed that no one was injured and that the gas leak was quickly controlled.
“A signal to 112 sounded the alarm. We were at the scene with the regional deputy governor Ilian Todorov, with the boys from the Fire Department and the Regional Directorate of the Ministry of the Interior. A pipe that led to the oxygen cylinders that fed one of the Departments of the Pulmonary Hospital exploded. With pneumonia they immediately receive oxygen from an oxygen concentrator.
