Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine ordered residents near the site of a massive train derailment in East Palestine to evacuate on Monday amid the risk of a 'catastrophic' explosion at the site and a planned control release of chemicals.

DeWine warned residents closest to the site they face severe injury including skin burns and serious lung damage and are in "grave danger of death" if they did not evacuate ahead of the planned release of hazardous chemicals from the train.

The train derailed near the border of Ohio and Pennsylvania on Friday night, causing a massive fire in the area. Fire, police and hazmat teams responded from three different states to control the massive blaze.

No one was injured.

Excellent reporting Global. Just 3 days after the incident.

Evacuate all people, especially if those box cars carry chemicals.

Someone needs pay big for this and it better not be the government, but maybe the politicians that pass lenient safety laws.

The big question: accident or sabotage?

Now they are making a hole in the tanker cars, and letting the poisonous material out into a ditch, where it is lit I would get to the next state over, just in case things go from extremely bad to much, much worse. "grave danger of death" is a sign for sure.


Move along, nothing to see here.

I'd like to know what caused this. Where are they releasing the chemicals? What damage will these chemicals do to the water and land in this ares? How much wildlife will be killed? What's tge long term damage. None if that is being released

Why is't this disaster in the news? You can't barely read about this worldwide. Hope people are safe

If it's like in Canada, the railroads must be in a terrible state! Here there was the derailment at Lac Mégantic several years ago which caused dozens of deaths! They do nothing until there is a disaster! This world is run by fools 🙄

Who is taking responsibility for removing the domestic and wild animals? Horrific for all involved. Do as you're instructed; get out.

Why is this being reported as "East Palestine" and being apparently covered up in a horrible fashion??

There was nothing "controlled" about this. The railroad workers have been warning about this and the safety concerns because of working conditions. But Biden intervened and here is the result . This is just sickening. What are people supposed to do, how to farms and businesses survive? I'm in the UK thinking about these poor people. I can't think of anything that any Government has done for anyone that has been good. If there has been anything, the bad they do outweighs it one thousand fold.

If any fund raising comes up to help these communities, please post as I would be more than happy to help.
