An explosion in a hotel in Cuba killed 22 people. What was the cause of the accident?
According to a Xinhua News Agency reporter, the explosion was a large-scale explosion caused by the explosion of a liquefied gas tanker parked near the hotel. When reporters rushed to the scene, they saw firefighters cooling the remnants of the liquefied gas tanker. After preliminary investigation of the scene, relevant personnel also found that the explosion was related to a natural gas leak.
On the morning of the 6th local time, a violent explosion occurred at the Saratoga Hotel, located near the Capitol Building in Old Havana, and the scene of the accident immediately turned into ruins. 22 people were killed and dozens injured in the explosion. Fortunately the hotel is in the process of preparing to resume operations and the people in the building are mostly hotel staff and no more guests have stayed during the renovation, otherwise the 96-room five-star hotel might have had a larger casualties. Due to the impact of the epidemic, the flow of people was small, and Cuba's tourism industry was also deeply hit. The hotel had been closed for two years and was preparing to reopen on the 10th of this month. The explosion ruined the efforts of the staff. Experts are currently reviewing the damage to the building to determine repair options.
Natural gas explosions are common. Natural gas leakage accidents may occur in street shops, personal houses and other places. We must learn relevant first aid knowledge to nip problems in the bud. The first situation is when you encounter an explosion in a public place. First, you should cover your head with your hands and lie down after the explosion. This measure should also be taken after an earthquake, so as to minimize the damage. Secondly, observe the surrounding situation and evacuate to a safe location as soon as possible after confirming that no secondary explosion will occur. During the evacuation process, try to avoid doors, windows, pillars, glass and walls, and lower your center of gravity before moving forward. Also stay awake after an accident, calm down and don't yell, and if you are injured, protect the wound. The second situation is that a gas leak occurs indoors. If you smell gas but there is no fire yet, you should immediately close the valve, open the window, and move to a safe place. Once a fire breaks out, you should leave immediately and do not try to put out the fire. The timing of the gas explosion should not be determined and should not be left to chance. If you hear the smell of gas, do not turn on the light or use a lighter. Move to a safe place before calling for help.
Everyone must stay calm after encountering a dangerous situation, evacuate to a safe place as soon as possible, and protect your own life.
