Explosion at Romania's biggest oil refinery kills 1, injures at least 4


An explosion at Romania's largest oil refinery outside the port city of Constanta on Friday killed one person and injured at least four, authorities said.
Plumes of black smoke could be seen rising from the Navodari Petromidia plant next to the Black Sea, as emergency services airlifted the injured people away for treatment, according to officials.
The refinery operator, Rompetrol Rafinare, said the blaze was later isolated and stabilized.
"Internal and external teams are making efforts to put it out in the shortest time, the company said in a social media post.
The cause of the blast was not immediately clear. An Interior Ministry statement urged residents at the nearby town of Navodari and other areas in the vicinity to close their windows because of the billowing smoke.
