VOICED: Explosion en refineria de PDVSA

A devastating explosion occurred at Venezuela's largest refinery, resulting in 39 deaths and over 15 injuries. The explosion, caused by a gas leak, led to significant damage to nearby homes and businesses. President Hugo Chávez declared three days of national mourning and initiated an investigation to determine the cause of the leak. Despite efforts to control the fire, it continued to burn, although authorities claimed it was under control. This incident is the worst accident recorded at a PDVSA complex. Venezuelan media frequently report on safety issues at these facilities, which are rarely confirmed by the state company.
