Rosa, however, was saved thanks to the timely intervention of her neighbors, but her condition proved fatal after several weeks of fighting.

Investigations indicated that the explosion was caused by a gas leak in the kitchen of Rosa's apartment, which triggered the building's structural collapse and caused the tragic accident.

All necessary measures have been taken, including the evacuation of families living on the ground floor of the building and the closure of the area for surveys by the competent authorities.
