A massive explosion occurred in the evening at Hıdırağa Mahallesi Borsa Meydanı in the Çorlu district of Tekirdağ. While the incident, which took place on the top floor of a six-story apartment building, is assessed to be an explosion caused by a natural gas leak, it caused great panic and fear in the vicinity due to its loud intensity. Following the explosion, numerous health, fire, and police teams were dispatched to the region immediately; teams arrived at the scene and started work by taking extensive security measures. Fire teams made intense efforts to bring the fire caused by the explosion under control and to determine if any citizens were trapped in the building. Upon hearing the incident, residents and citizens poured into the streets, following developments with great sorrow and concern.
The extent of the damage in the apartment where the explosion occurred was visually shocking; the interior structure of the apartment located on the top floor of the building became completely unusable, while large-scale collapses and breakages occurred on the exterior facade. The apartment in question is a structure served by GAZDAŞ Trakya's natural gas service, and parts of the building's exterior walls were scattered onto the road and surrounding buildings due to the force of the explosion. Fire and police teams dispatched to the scene continue their detailed investigations into the definite cause of the explosion, while statements from witnesses began to be taken. In the initial examinations in the region, it was considered that the energy of the explosion may have caused some damage to the building's carrier systems.
As a result of the rescue work and initial checks by health teams, the bitter truth emerged that 2 citizens lost their lives. The bodies were delivered to the relevant authorities to be taken to the morgue after the procedures completed following the instructions of the prosecutor's office. On the other hand, 5 people injured in the explosion, who do not have life-threatening risks, were quickly transported to surrounding hospitals by ambulances after the first and urgent intervention by health teams at the scene. It was reported that the condition of the injured is stable and they are kept under observation in the hospital as a precaution, so the toll of the disaster began to become clear.
Following the explosion, officials from the Çorlu District Governorship and Municipality also came to the scene, made examinations and received information from the authorities. In the statements made, it was expressed that the definite cause of the explosion would be determined as a result of technical investigations, but initial findings point to a natural gas accumulation or a leak. Citizens were warned not to neglect stove and radiator maintenance, especially due to increased natural gas use in winter months, and to regularly check for flue gas and leaks. GAZDAŞ teams dispatched to the region also examined the natural gas lines in the apartment building where the explosion occurred and surrounding buildings by completely closing them for security purposes.
Consequently, in order to prevent such disasters from recurring, officials frequently warn building administrators and citizens to have periodic maintenance of natural gas consumption devices. The work of the teams continued until the early hours of the morning, and a security cordon was drawn around the apartment building where the explosion occurred to prevent citizens from approaching. The Tekirdağ Governorship and Çorlu District Governorship announced that an official statement regarding the incident would be made and that necessary aid would be provided. On the other hand, it was learned that citizens in other apartments of the building may have been temporarily warned or damage assessments would be made due to the apartment where the explosion occurred likely suffering heavy damage.
