Trains Collide, Explode in North Korea
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) -- Thousands of people were believed killed or injured Thursday when two trains carrying oil and liquefied petroleum gas collided and exploded in a North Korean train station, hours after leader Kim Jong Il passed through on his return from a China visit, South Korean news media reported.
The number killed or injured could reach 3,000, said YTN, South Korea's all-news cable channel, citing unnamed sources on the China-North Korea border.
South Korea's Yonhap news agency, quoting sources in the Chinese city of Dandong that borders the North, said the explosion took place around 1 p.m. local time at Ryongchon, nine hours after Kim passed through on his way back to Pyongyang.
Ryongchon is about 12 miles from the Chinese border. |
