TL;DR: A massive explosion has rocked the city of San CristΓ³bal, Dominican Republic, killing 10 people and leaving another 11 missing. Over 50 individuals are injured, 36 still hospitalized. Authorities, including President LuΓ­s Abinader, are doing their best to find the missing and manage the situation.

Explosion in the Heart of San CristΓ³bal 🏒πŸ’₯

Picture this: You’re strolling through the “Old Marketplace” in San CristΓ³bal, shopping for veggies and clothes. Suddenly, a bakery explodes, and the fire spreads to a hardware store and a furniture store next door. Tragically, a baby and a bank worker are among the victims.

JosΓ© RamΓ³n RamΓ­rez Rivera, a local vet, shared his experience: β€œAn office wall fell on top of me. I couldn’t breathe.” Wait, what? 😲 How would you even respond in such a chaotic situation? πŸ€”

Smoke lingers, mixing with chemicals. Health Minister Daniel Rivera urges everyone to wear face masks, but that’s easier said than done, right? πŸ’¨πŸ˜·

History Repeats Itself? πŸ•’

Here’s a little twist: San CristΓ³bal was the site of another explosion nearly 23 years ago when an arms depot exploded. A coincidence? Or is there more to this story?🧐

Who’s to Blame? πŸ•΅οΈβ€β™‚οΈ

Meanwhile, the government is launching an investigation to see if the bakery was operating under proper regulations. But hey, why the sudden explosion, and why now? Could this be a result of negligence, or is it something more sinister? πŸ˜³πŸ’­

The President and other officials are doing “everything humanly possible” to handle the crisis, setting up mobile hospitals, providing treatments, and ensuring people’s safety.

But wait a minute, what’s the real deal with the delay in accessing “ground zero?” Is the government hiding something? Or is this just the result of a genuine mishap that needs serious attention?🀨

In the wake of this tragic incident, lives must be saved, assets must be protected, and the incident must be extinguished. Sounds simple, doesn’t it? But is it?

Burns, fractures, respiratory problems – the first 24 hours are crucial, and time is ticking.⏰
