As per local media reports, five factories were struck by explosions and a blaze. The industrial area has several manufacturing companies making tyres, chemical products and other goods.“It is a complex fire. It will be a long fire,” said Fabian Garcia, civil defence director for Buenos Aires province.The smoke and fire also resulted in reduced visibility in the area, affecting flight operations at the Ministro Pistarini International Airport, the major international airport in Argentina. Many flights were delayed or diverted due to poor weather visibility in the region following the blast.According to media reports, the fire likely originated from one of the five factories that were engulfed in flames. Granados told local media that one of the five was a chemical plant, where the warehouses caught fire. Another factory was a plastics plant.Most of those who were injured in the incident received minor to moderate burns and injuries from glass shattering, the local media reported.
