In France, three people were killed in an explosion followed by a blaze in an eight-storey building in Paris last night. The reason of the blast is not yet clear. An explosion was heard before a fire broke out on the 7th floor of the building. An investigation into the incident has been initiated to look into the cause of the explosion.
Following the blast, the occupants of the neighbouring buildings were also evacuated. They later, returned to their homes. This is the third time in just a few years, that an explosion inside a structure has struck the capital, killing multiple people.
