Gas line explosion in Kaohsiung

Hi everyone,
So recently there was a gas line explosion in Kaohsiung, 27+ people have already died in the aftermath and nearly 300 are injured. We're in a safe area right now, but a lot of people in the city are still searching for casualties. It doesn't exactly help that the gas (propylene) is a)soluble in water and b) doesn't have any sulphur added for detection. Hope this gets off the news quickly, and that the air gets clear enough to walk in...

It's in the south of Taiwan, Kimberly.
Right now the danger zone is out of power and water, and the government is providing bento boxes, water, and emergency generators.

Great, so a week after the explosion there's another gas leak in the SAME LOCATION...
Also, the place flooded because of heavy rain from typhoon effect.

I can't believe there's now a Wikipedia article for what happened... (As far as I'm concerned, it's back to normal now)
