Because of the 20-foot fire pole in Voronezh forced the evacuation of two homes and the clinic.
In Voronezh rescuers had to evacuate a local hospital and two apartment buildings due to ignition of gas.
The gas pipeline was damaged due to excavation.
As can be seen in a video released from the scene, a column of flame reached a height of about 15-20 meters.
In addition, the fire also spread to the window openings and the roof ridge of a house.
The situation was complicated by the fact that due to the high temperature, the rescuers could not get close to the gas torch closer than 30 meters, and they had to change every 2-3 minutes.
