The fire reportedly broke out around 2:35pm, following an explosion that occurred while gas was being unloaded from an LPG-carrying lorry at the filling station, said Md Mozammel Hossain, deputy director of Mymensingh Fire Service and Civil Defence.

Seven firefighting units promptly responded to the emergency, managing to bring the flames under control by nearly 3:25pm.

Following the incident, the deputy commissioner constituted a three-member committee tasked with investigating the cause of the explosion. 

The committee was instructed to submit its report within three working days.
