A powerful explosion ripped through a 24-hour gym in Amsterdam’s Nieuw-West district late last night, injuring seven people who were hospitalized. Emergency services are searching for potential additional victims, hampered by ongoing fires and the risk of structural collapse after four walls were damaged. Due to instability, rescuers initially deployed drones and search dogs before deciding to demolish the building with a crane to safely search the rubble. Authorities have not yet determined the cause of the blast, but the gym owner suggests it originated below the ground floor, potentially in utility or storage spaces. Residents of a nearby apartment building remain evacuated as demolition is underway. The fire is largely under control, but not fully extinguished, and the condition of the injured remains unknown.
