An explosion at an ENI fuel depot in Calenzano, near Florence, Italy, on Monday resulted in at least two deaths, nine injuries, and three missing persons.

Some of the injured sustained concussions from the blast's air displacement. Emergency services, including firefighters and medical personnel, responded to the scene.
