Tragedy struck in Uganda as at least 11 people lost their lives in a devastating fuel truck explosion near a highway. The incident, which occurred just outside the capital city of Kampala, claimed the lives of two children among the victims. According to police reports, the fuel truck overturned following an accident and subsequently exploded, leaving the victims burnt beyond recognition.
The scene was described as horrific, with a cloud of dark smoke billowing from the site of the explosion. Shockingly, a video shared online depicted individuals attempting to collect fuel from the damaged truck before the fatal blast occurred. This dangerous behavior mirrors a recent incident in Nigeria where over 140 people, including children, lost their lives in a similar fuel truck explosion.
