New Ukraine Blast Kills Four

03 December 2007


An explosion has hit the Zasyadko coal mine in the Ukraine, two weeks after a blast at the mine killed 101 people.

The blast occurred yesterday at around 9.30pm, killing four people and injuring at least five, writes Associated Press.

The blast follows a methane explosion deep underground on 18 November, the worst mining accident in the Ukraine.

The Zasyadko mine employs about 10,000 people, producing up to 10,000t of coal a day.
