A gas explosion on Sunday killed 14 people and injured 28 others when a residential block collapsed in eastern Algeria, local authorities said. The blast early on Sunday was caused by a gas leak and destroyed two floors of a five-storey building in a poor neighbourhood in the city of Guelma, 540 km (340 miles) east of the capital, Algiers.
"Out of eight people operated on, two have died, so we have currently 14 dead," a Guelma health department official told state radio.
