Next, the Toyota Avanza car that was hit hit two other cars, namely the Toyota Veloz and Toyota Calya, which were in front of it. Even though there was a series of collisions, Karsan confirmed that there were no fatalities or injuries in this accident.
This accident occurred at low speed and the four cars were not carrying passengers. “The only victims were dented vehicle materials. There were no injuries. It has been resolved amicably,” concluded Karsan.

Fire Burns 14 Shophouses in Sambas Market, West Kalimantan

Elpiji Gas Warehouse Fire in Bali: 13 Victims Still Being Treated in Critical Condition in the ICU at Ngoerah Hospital
A total of 13 victims of the fire at the LPG gas warehouse in Ubung Kaja, Denpasar, Bali, are still being treated in very critical condition in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of RSUP Dr. I.G.N.G. Ngoerah (Sanglah). Head of the Intensive Care Installation at Ngoerah Hospital, I Putu Kurniayanta, stated that the medical team continues to try to stabilize the patients’ conditions.
“The patients suffered very severe burns. Of the 13 patients, 12 of them required assistance with breathing apparatus because the explosion trauma had affected the upper respiratory tract, causing swelling and difficulty breathing,” said Kurniyanta in a press conference at RSUP, Tuesday (11/6 ).
He added that it is likely that patients who are not currently using breathing apparatus will also need one because their condition is still unstable and the burns are very extensive. “We are giving fluids to stabilize their condition because the body’s protection against injured skin does not exist, so a lot of fluid comes out,” he explained.
Apart from breathing problems, the victims also suffered extensive burns which caused damage to the body’s organ systems. From experience, burns that reach more than 60 to 70 percent are very difficult to treat.
“Inflammation due to hot steam entering through the nose causes swelling of the airways from the top to the lungs, so we use breathing apparatus,” continued Kurniayanta.
I Gusti Putu Hendra Sanjaya, Plastic Surgeon at Ngoerah General Hospital, said that although there were certain cases with burns of more than 60 percent that survived, the current condition really depends on the amount of damage to the airways and lungs. “If a fire occurs in an open space, the chances of survival are greater, but in this situation, a lot of smoke enters the respiratory tract,” he said.
Previously, three victims of the LPG gas warehouse fire died after being treated at Ngoerah General Hospital. They are Yudis Aldyanto, Edi Herwanto, and Purwanto. Affan Priyambodo, Director of Medicine and Nursing at Ngoerah Hospital, stated that this event was an extraordinary event (KLB) with a total of 18 patients being treated at Ngoerah Hospital.
The Ngoerah Hospital medical team continues to work hard to save the victims who are still being treated, even though the challenges they face are enormous considering the severity of the burns and organ damage they suffered.
