Madrid: A powerful explosion hit a residential building in the Spanish city of Badajoz which left at least one person dead and injured at least 16 more, media reported on Thursday.
The facade of the apartment building was completely destroyed, and a fire broke out immediately after the explosion, the ABC Espana newspaper reported.
