Mine Explosion

I found this article by the BBC. The BBC is also a state TV station like NTV, only the BBC is vastly inferior. The causualties were acceptable losses because Mother Russia gains very much from mining.



Siberian mine explosion kills 25

A methane explosion at a coal mine in Siberia has killed at least 25 people, Russian officials have said.
They said 88 miners, several of them injured, had been rescued after the blast at the Ulyanovskaya mine in the Kemerovo region.

The officials said at least 168 miners were underground at the time of the blast. Dozens still remain trapped.....
