The explosions, which occurred on Friday, resulted in over 80 injuries and caused significant damage to the surrounding area. Colonel Antonio Amaru, the base commander, stated that search and rescue operations are ongoing, with 14 personnel still unaccounted for. The blasts' cause is under investigation, with initial reports suggesting the first explosion involved pyrotechnic material stored on-site, while the second, more powerful explosion is still being analyzed. The Defense Minister, Ernesto Justiniano, emphasized that the safety of the evacuated residents remains a priority, as some homes have been damaged by the shockwaves. President Rodrigo Paz pledged a thorough and transparent investigation into the incident, expressing deep sympathy for the families affected.",
