In this case, there was an explosion in the outlet area and a fire broke out. A local newspaper reported that the explosion may have been caused by equipment malfunction or natural causes.

Also, rescue operations are said to have been delayed due to the severe cold. Not only that but 236 people are said to have been rescued so far, while 75 are still said to be trapped in the mine. But Russian officials say only 45 have been killed.
