62 confirmed dead in oil pipeline blast
Print Edition
The final death toll from an oil pipeline blast in the Chinese coastal city of Qingdao is 62, local authorities said yesterday.
Last month’s explosion ripped roads apart, turning cars over and sending thick black smoke billowing over the city.
The body of the last missing person was found on Monday, the Qingdao City government said in an online statement, taking the number of confirmed dead to 62.
Another 136 people were treated in hospital, it said.
The pipeline, run by state-owned oil giant Sinopec, sprang a leak on November 22 and exploded several hours later as workers sought to repair it.
Seven Sinopec executives have been detained by police but authorities have yet to say what caused the incident.
