Blast in French flats kills 11

AN EXPLOSION in a four-storey block of French flats killed 11 people, including a mother and her two young daughters, in Dijon, 150 miles south- east of Paris, yesterday. Rescuers used their bare hands and trained dogs to search for survivors in the debris, which was just 13-feet high. A gas leak is suspected of causing the blast.
