Meanwhile, a person who witnessed the moment of the explosion said, "I was at home, my daughter shouted, 'My friend's house is on fire.' I came, looked. I told people, 'Get back.' Before I could say 'There will be an explosion', it suddenly boomed. Flames engulfed everywhere. Everyone ran away. The fire department arrived within 5 minutes. It was very bad. It's in good condition now. As far as I know, no one is inside, but I know there is one aunt. I don't know who else is there. It was very bad; I even sent my children away from here," he said.
