Three people were killed and four more injured in a blaze a
chemical plant in northwest China, according to the state-backed Xinhua news
agency.
The fire struck a plant operated by the Qingyang
Petrochemical Company, owned by PetroChina, on 26 July. It is thought that oil
leaked from the plant before igniting and killing the three workers, though
firefighters were able to bring the blaze under control within a few hours of
the accident.
Xinhua says that the cause of the fire is not yet known, but
that it is under investigation by authorities. (s:Richard
