Cat caused gas explosion in Odintsovo apartment

An explosion occurred in an apartment on the 19th floor of a building on Belorusskaya Street in Odintsovo. At the time of the incident, there was no one inside except for a house cat.

The EMERCOM established that a 200 ml tourist gas cylinder was stored near the electric stove. According to preliminary versions, the animal accidentally turned on the stove, which led to heating and a subsequent explosion.
