7 injured in Phnom Penh petrol station explosion
7 people were seriously injured yesterday in a major explosion and fire at a gas station in Phnom Penh
The incident happened on the afternoon of September 3, 2022 near Boeung Baitong Market along Street 1928, Samdech Chea Sim Street, Krong Thmey Village, Sangkat Kork Khleang, Khan Sen Sok.
Police say that a fire broke out at a gas exchange depot and crossed to people’s houses on the other side of the road, causing seven men and women to suffer injuries as well as damaging cars and motorcycles.
Colonel Prohm Yorn said that in the fire, seven men and women were seriously injured and sent to the emergency room immediately.
He confirmed that the owner of the gas station, Pen Thearith, a 69-year-old man, was seriously injured as were 6 others
The cause of the fire is believed to be a gas leak.

I always cross the street when coming up on a petrol station or gas (as in cooking gas) depot; this happens way too often.

That is what I thought until a gas station exploded in Siem Reap a few years ago, not far from where my house was.

I still remember the news story and am not surprised they still happen given the lack of safety measures and common sense here.
