Two killed in suspected natural-gas explosion in Western Ukraine

An explosion has destroyed part of a residential building in the city of Drohobych in western Ukraine, killing two people.

Lviv regional government officials said the incident most likely was caused by a natural gas explosion in the early hours of August 28.

It destroyed several apartments from the ground floor to the top of the four-storey block. According to the officials, seven people, including four children, were hospitalized.

Rescue brigades continue to search the debris for at least three missing people. A probe has been launched into the blast, officials said.
