There is more noise about explosion in front of the Flame Towers than explosion itself
Baku/30.12.21/Turan: On the morning of 30 December there was an explosion in front of one of the towers of the Flame Towers complex in the upland part of the capital.
The fact has caused close attention and concern, for in the immediate vicinity of the site there are Milli Majlis, the State Security Service, the Ministry of Defense and the AZTV State Television and Radio Company.
Later, Azerigaz and the mayor's office clarified that the explosion was caused by a gas leak during repair work. Two employees of the Baku City Hall were injured in the explosion.
As for the object of the explosion, it was one of the two 8-meter towers in front of the complex. On top of it there is a torch where the fire is burning.
It is noteworthy that since the opening of the three Flame Towers skyscrapers (about 10 years), the pedestrian paths in front of them are blocked with metal fences. People are forced to walk along the roadway. The impression is that it is deadly to approach these buildings. Today's explosion proved that these assumptions were correct. In all probability, they will now close off the roadway as well. -02B-
