El estallido fue causado por cuestiones "técnicas" en las instalaciones ubicadas a 50 kilómetros de Viena y abastecidas por Rusia. Italia y Croacia podrían experimentar faltantes y Roma ya declaró el "estado de emergencia"

Una explosión en uno de los mayores terminales de gas de Europa provocó este martes un muerto y 18 heridos, y amenaza con limitar las entregas a Italia y Croacia, lo que contribuye al aumento de los precios de los hidrocarburos.

El gobierno italiano declaró el "estado de emergencia" energética a raíz de esta explosión ocurrida en Austria, al tiempo que prometía compensar la reducción de las importaciones recurriendo a las reservas nacionales.

Roma "vigila de forma constante la situación en coordinación con los operadores para comprobar el tiempo necesario para la reanudación del flujo", informó el ministerio de Desarrollo Económico.

La terminal de Baumgarten, situado unos 50 kilómetros al este de Viena y cerca de la frontera eslovaca, es el principal centro de distribución del gas que llega a Austria desde Rusia y Noruega. Desde esta instalación se abastece a Italia y Croacia, y a una parte del oeste del continente a través de Alemania.

El accidente favorecía este martes una disparada de los precios de los hidrocarburos: el precio del gas subía más de 20% a última hora de la mañana en Londres, alcanzando su nivel más alto desde diciembre de 2013, informó la agencia Bloomberg.

La explosión, de origen accidental según la policía, se produjo a las 08:45 (07:45 GMT) y le siguió un incendio que fue rápidamente controlado, pero cuya gran columna de llamas anaranjadas se pudo ver desde varios kilómetros a la redonda según explicaron los testigos.

"Oí una enorme explosión y primero creí que era un accidente de avión. Después vi esa inmensa bola de fuego", dijo a la AFP el fotógrafo Thomas Hulik, habitante de un pueblo eslovaco cercano al terminal.

Según una portavoz de la Cruz Roja en el estado de Baja Austria, Sonja Kellner, el balance se eleva a un muerto y 18 heridos. Uno de los heridos se encuentra en estado "grave", precisó la policía.

 

En un mensaje de Facebook, el presidente de la República austriaca, Alexander Van der Bellen, transmitió su pésame a la familia del técnico muerto y sus deseos de "rápido restablecimiento" a los heridos.

Las víctimas se encontraban en las instalaciones en el momento de la explosión y fueron evacuadas con ayuda de un importante dispositivo de socorro que movilizó a unas 200 personas.

La policía afirmó que las causas del accidente fueron "técnicas" y que se abrió una investigación para determinar lo ocurrido.

La explosión provocó "daños importantes", afirmó a la AFP un portavoz de la empresa que gestiona la terminal, Gas Connect Austria, filial al 51% del grupo energético austriaco OMV.

La instalación, donde trabajan 50 empleados, fue evacuada y puesta en "modo de seguridad", agregó.

"Es posible que haya perturbaciones en las entregas para Italia y Croacia", precisó este portavoz, Armin Teichert, precisando que el tráfico hacia el oeste de Europa no se vio afectado.

Con una capacidad anual de 40.000 millones de metros cúbicos, esta infraestructura inaugurada en 1959 es uno de los principales nudos de distribución de gas en Europa Central y trata seis millones de metros cúbicos de gas por hora en este periodo del año, según Gas Connect.

En un comunicado, el gigante ruso Gazprom, uno de los principales abastecedores del terminal, afirmó "estar trabajando para redistribuir los flujos de gas" a raíz de este accidente y aseguró "hacer todo lo posible para garantizar un suministro ininterrumpido de gas para sus clientes".

    • It appears to me that this is a key aspect of the 2030 initiative ideology. While the Rothschilds were indeed influential individuals who were able to sway governments, much like present-day billionaires, the true impetus for change stems from the omnipotent forces (Satan) shaping our world. In this case, there is a false God of this world. However, what drives action within a political framework? Power! What is unfolding before our eyes in today's world? The relentless struggle for power. The overwhelming tide of people rising. We cannot underestimate the direct and sinister influence of Satan in all of this. However, it is up to individuals to decide how they choose to worship God. Satanism, as a form of religion, cannot be regarded as a true religion. Consequently, just as ancient practices of child sacrifice had a place in God's world, such sacrifices would never be accepted by the True God of our universe. Despite the promising 2030 initiative for those involved, it is unfortunately disintegrating due to the actions of certain individuals in positions of authority. A recent incident serves as a glaring example, involving a conflict between peaceful Muslims and a Jewish representative that unfolded just this week. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/11/us-delegation-saudi-arabia-kippah?ref=upstract.com Saudi Arabia was among the countries that agreed to the initiative signed by approximately 179 nations in or around 1994. However, this initiative is now being undermined by the devil himself, who is sowing discord among the delegates due to the ongoing Jewish-Hamas (Palestine) conflict. Fostering antisemitism. What kind of sacrifice does Satan accept with the death of babies and children in places like Gaza, Ukraine, and other conflicts around the world, whether in the past or present, that God wouldn't? Whatever personal experiences we may have had with well-known individuals, true Christians understand that current events were foretold long ago, and nothing can prevent them from unfolding. What we are witnessing is the result of Satan's wrath upon humanity, as was predicted. A true religion will not involve itself in the politics of this world, as it is aware of the many detrimental factors associated with such engagement. It understands the true intentions of Satan for this world and wisely chooses to stay unaffected by them.
    • This idea that Satan can put Jews in power implies that God doesn't want Jews in power. But that would also imply that God only wants "Christians" including Hitler, Biden, Pol Pot, Chiang Kai-Shek, etc. 
    • @Mic Drop, I don't buy it. I watched the movie. It has all the hallmarks of the anti-semitic tropes that began to rise precipitously on social media during the last few years - pre-current-Gaza-war. And it has similarities to the same anti-semitic tropes that began to rise in Europe in the 900's to 1100's. It was back in the 500s AD/CE that many Khazars failed to take or keep land they fought for around what's now Ukraine and southern Russia. Khazars with a view to regaining power were still being driven out into the 900's. And therefore they migrated to what's now called Eastern Europe. It's also true that many of their groups converted to Judaism after settling in Eastern Europe. It's possibly also true that they could be hired as mercenaries even after their own designs on empire had dwindled.  But I think the film takes advantage of the fact that so few historical records have ever been considered reliable by the West when it comes to these regions. So it's easy to fill the vacuum with some very old antisemitic claims, fables, rumors, etc..  The mention of Eisenhower in the movie was kind of a giveaway, too. It's like, Oh NO! The United States had a Jew in power once. How on earth could THAT have happened? Could it be . . . SATAN??" Trying to tie a connection back to Babylonian Child Sacrifice Black Magick, Secret Satanism, and Baal worship has long been a trope for those who need to think that no Jews like the Rothschilds and Eisenhowers (????) etc would not have been able to get into power in otherwise "Christian" nations without help from Satan.    Does child sacrifice actually work to gain power?? Does drinking blood? Does pedophilia??? (also mentioned in the movie) Yes, it's an evil world and many people have evil ideologies based on greed and lust and ego. But how exactly does child sacrifice or pedophilia or drinking blood produce a more powerful nation or cabal of some kind? To me that's a giveaway that the authors know that the appeal will be to people who don't really care about actual historical evidence. Also, the author(s) of the video proved that they have not done much homework, but are just trying to fill that supposed knowledge gap by grasping at old paranoid and prejudicial premises. (BTW, my mother and grandmother, in 1941 and 1942, sat next to Dwight Eisenhower's mother at an assembly of Jehovah's Witnesses. The Eisenhower family had been involved in a couple of "Christian" religions and a couple of them associated with IBSA and JWs for many years.)
