https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChLtXXpo4Ge1ReTEboVvTDg https://ift.tt/keC0pmR A massive fire broke out in Malaysia Tuesday after a gas pipeline leak just outside of the capital city. More than 300 people were affected by the blaze, and roughly 145 were treated at nearby Selangor state hospitals. The incident took place at a Petronas oil and gas plant in Puchong and was reported at about 8 a.m. local. An estimated 500 metres of pipeline was engulfed in flames, according to local media. Witnesses recalled hearing a noise and seeing a red glow of light in the sky. By the time the noise stopped and they felt safe enough to look, a local said, “the building across from us was already on fire and the cars in front and next door were all burning.” Though no fatalities have been recorded, dozens suffered burns and respiratory issues among other injuries.
