Gas explosion on Altayskaya Street leaves two hospitalized

A gas explosion on Altayskaya Street left two people hospitalized. A 55-year-old Minsk resident was refueling a lighter from a gas canister not intended for this purpose. When the man tried to test the lighter, an explosion occurred. The apartment owner suffered burns, and the blown-out window frame fell on a passerby. Two parked cars were also damaged. The building's load-bearing structures were not affected.
