Russian rescuers in the city of Magnitogorsk have pulled an 11 month old baby from the rubble of a block of flats hit by an explosion yesterday.
The boy, named Ivan, has serious frostbite, a head injury and leg fractures, and will be sent for treatment in Moscow. He is said to be in a very serious condition.
Ivan was partially clothed when found, in a city where the daytime temperature is around -17C.
The Russian emergencies Ministry said the baby’s mother also survived and had arrived at the hospital to visit her son.
Eight bodies have been found so far in the ruins of the apartment building, amid fears the death toll will rise. Officials in the Urals region city blamed a gas leak for the blast. Around 36 people are still missing.
