Another gas explosion has occurred in China.
Earlier in June, in the wake of a gas explosion accident that resulted in 38 casualties, President Xi Jinping personally ordered reinforced safety inspections, but similar accidents continue to occur.

Along with the sound of the explosion, even a car running outside in the fourth lane is shocked.
People who do not know where they came from are lying here and there on the road, and the area around the building where the explosion occurred has become a real mess.
It was an accident that occurred at a grilled fish restaurant in Gaomi City, Shandong Province, China at around 7:15 am local time.
Local media reported that the gas explosion killed one person and seriously injured another, and that the exact cause of the accident was under investigation.

Earlier, on the 17th of last month, two casualties occurred in a similar accident in Yancheng, Jiangsu Province.
In June, an explosion occurred while grinding a gas cylinder at a Ningxia restaurant, killing 31 people and injuring 7 others.
In the evening when customers flocked, he did business even though he knew that the gas was leaking, and he increased the damage.
Even President Xi Jinping issued a serious order to strengthen safety inspections nationwide.

However, in this summer of repeated heat waves and heavy rain, the explosion of old gas cylinders continues.
China’s lax safety standards and endemic corruption in fire authorities are also blamed.
