Jesus, I spent many summers in Creeslough some mornings we would have gone to that shop for some breakfast.
Some solar panels on that building
Christ, what a mess!
Was it a bomb
Crazy.
People still trapped inside according to RTE
Fuckkkk
The whole roof of the shop looks like it colapsed. Still tons of people trapped hours later right now, looks like it will take all night and tomorrow to get ones out hopefully most will be alive
That’s two floors collapsed, I stayed in the top attic apartment on holiday 5 years ago! The one that’s now gone. I think there’s about 8 apartments in the complex mostly holiday let’s then. This is awful 😞
Looks like a few flats were attached to the petrol station – I’m no planning permission expert but surely this must be against some sort of regulation due to the inherent threat of danger?
So the explosion had nothing to do with the station then?
Still searching rubble for survivors
From that view it looks like the explosion came from the 1st floor of the middle collapsed building. What would cause that, a gas leak or something? Don’t modern cookers and heaters switch off if they detect a leak?
God help them
Why would you have an apartment building so close to a garage

I’m not an expert but it looks like the explosion came from one of the apartments above and blew towards the left side where the exterior to the other apartments on the left are destroyed and all the rubble below it. Bless them all heard there’s still people trying to communicate through the rubble so thank god they’re still with us 🙏
Heard this in rosapenna miles away. Hope everyone is ok.
There is 7 people still trapped inside
Thats really a bad news
That’s terrible news.
**9 dead** now, and people still missing according to a local TD.
Wow , had not heard about this as I don’t have any Irish news channels, that looks and sounds absolutely horrific and so sad for those who lost loved ones. Hope the death toll does not raise too much as I see some posts saying 9 already. I hope burns victims are not too bad. Shocking.
10 dead now. 4 men, 3 women, teenage boy, teenage girl, and a 5 year old girl.
Horrific.
