Tragic Gas Explosion Claims Family of Four Lives in Samarkand
A tragic gas explosion in Samarkand claimed the lives of a family of four. The incident occurred on October 22 in the “Mustaqillik” neighborhood of the Koshrabod district in the Samarkand region.
Preliminary reports indicate that the explosion was triggered by a gas leak in the second-floor apartment of a two-story residential building. Unfortunately, the homeowner was unaware of the leak and unknowingly switched on the lights, leading to the blast.

Authorities, specifically the General Prosecutor’s Office, have initiated an investigation to determine the exact cause of the gas leak. The goal is to identify any safety lapses or negligence that may have contributed to the tragedy, and to ensure that appropriate safety measures are taken in the future to prevent similar incidents from occurring.
