Over 100 killed in Congo blasts: interior minister

BRAZZAVILLE: More than 100 people were killed Sunday in a series of explosions at a munitions depot in the Congolese capital Brazzaville, the interior minister said.

"There are more than 100 dead. The injured are difficult to enumerate for the moment," Raymond Mboulou said by telephone, citing civilian and military hospital sources after a European diplomat said at least 150 people died. (AFP)
