"Seven people, including five children, were killed and more than 25 others injured on Thursday in a reported gas cylinder explosion in the city of Chaman in western Pakistan. Footage shows the bodies of children and injured residents receiving medical treatment at a local hospital. The cause of the explosion was not confirmed. Pakistani media reported that the blast occurred inside a residential house. According to preliminary investigations, a large number of residents had gathered at the house, where curdled milk was being distributed, when the explosion took place.
