According to the Lviv city council, the fire engulfed about 300 square metres. At the time of the incident there were guests in the building - everyone was evacuated.
According to preliminary data, most of the victims received minor injuries, but one person - the likely epicentre of the explosion - received serious burns. Now all the victims are being treated at the First Medical Association of Lviv.
The fire was reported at 12:23. The source of ignition was presumably on the 9th floor of the building on Kleparivska Street, 30. A group of rescuers arrived on the scene, acting on an increased call number. They managed to evacuate 15 people.
