<p>A tweet by emergency services for the Catalonia region called the blast in the port city of Tarragona a “chemical accident”, and said no information on possible deaths or injuries was available.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>The service advised residents in parts of the city, with a population of 800,000, and in nearby towns to close their windows and to refrain from going outside as preventive measures.</p>
<p>The explosion led to a fire, the regional service said, while fire departments sent 10 brigades to the area.</p>
<p>Local residents posted videos showing the aftermath of the blast, with flames and a big column of black smoke emerging from an area dotted with big industrial tanks.</p>
<p>Some local residents told Tarragona Radio that the blast could be heard from miles away.</p>
<p>Tarragona is located 70 miles south west of Barcelona, the regional capital of Spain’s Catalonia region.</p>

<p>Since 2015, the city has housed a 1,200-hectare “chemical hub”, ChemMed, that was described as the largest of its kind in southern Europe.</p>
