		</div><p>The death toll from a gas pipeline explosion in a mosque outside Bangladesh’s capital rose to 24 on Sunday while authorities were examining how a leakage caused the accident during evening prayers.</p>
<p>A seven-year-old boy who went to pray with his father in the Narayanganj district was among the dead. The father is in a critical condition.</p>
<p>The series of explosions triggered a fire as worshippers were finishing their prayers on Friday night.</p>
<p>At least 37 people were admitted to a burns unit in a state-run hospital in Dhaka, where 24 subsequently died.</p>
<p>Doctors said the others were critical after suffering burns on up to 90% of their bodies.</p>
<p>Officials said the impact of the blast caused at least six air conditioners to also explode as the fire rapidly spread through the packed mosque.</p>
<p>Authorities said they suspected gas had accumulated inside the mosque from a leak in the underground pipeline. The windows were shut because of the air conditioners.</p>
