17 killed, 59 injured by explosion in western Ghana

Map of Ghana, locating Apiate, some 300 km west of the capital Accra, where a truck carrying explosives collided with a motorcycle on Thursday, causing an immense explosion and a huge “loss of lives”, according to the Ghanaian president.

At least 17 people were killed and 59 injured Thursday in a devastating explosion in a western Ghana town after a truck carrying explosives intended for a mine collided with a motorcycle, the government said.

In 2017, at least three people were killed and dozens injured after a tanker truck carrying natural gas caught fire in Accra, triggering explosions at two fuel stations and killing three people.
