3 people injured in explosion at military base in Gimhae
Three civilians were injured in an explosion at a military base in this southeastern city on Monday, authorities said.
The explosion occurred during an inspection of a recently constructed tank facility for hazardous materials at the base of a logistics support group in Gimhae, about 310 kilometers southeast of Seoul, at 9:27 a.m., according to the police and firefighting officials.
Gimhae is the city just to the west of Busan and this was at a Korean, not US, military base.
Well, now it won’t. But one wonders given that the infamous Sampoong Department store had passed inspections before it became a pile of rubble with over 500 dead.
