The force of the explosion was so intense that it left a trail of destruction in its wake, claiming lives and leaving several others with severe injuries.
Emergency services have since rushed to the scene and currently working tirelessly to rescue survivors and transport the injured to nearby hospitals for urgent medical attention.
