This was reported by the Telegram channels Baza and Shot. According to preliminary data, two people died, including a child, and two more were injured.
According to sources, the incident was caused by the depressurization of a hydrodynamic stand designed for research on fluid and gas flows. At the time of the tests, the director of the company that developed the installation and his daughter were in the laboratory. They sustained fatal injuries.
