The balance of the injured from the powerful explosion in the premises of a construction company in the city of Lushnje has worsened.
From what has been reported so far, one person has remained dead, identified as citizen Roland Hoxha, while 10 others have been injured, some of them in serious condition.
The explosion is suspected to have occurred when a crane, during the construction of a silo, touched the wires of the high voltage pole.
Among the injured is the deputy of the Socialist Party, Bujar Çela, who is the owner of the business where the explosion occurred. It is known that Çela was transported to the hospital and is in the operating room where he is undergoing a surgical intervention. His health condition is reported to be serious but stable.
So, the other four seriously injured workers were urgently sent to the trauma hospital in Tirana.
Interior Minister Taulant Balla, who is currently in the trauma hospital in Tirana, also went to the scene.
