💨 Abstract

A fire at an industrial site in Vilanova i la Geltru, near Barcelona, Spain, released a toxic chlorine cloud on Saturday, affecting around 160,000 people in five nearby towns. Authorities advised residents to stay indoors, and no injuries were reported. The blaze, possibly caused by a lithium battery, disrupted trains, roads, and local events. Although challenging to extinguish, the fire was eventually brought under control, officials said.
