Taubertal-Festival: Ten injured in camping stove gas deflagration

Ten people were injured at the Taubertal-Festival in Franken, Germany, following a gas deflagration involving a camping stove. The incident occurred on the festival's camping grounds when a 26-year-old man was using the device. Authorities believe the accident was caused by improper handling, which led to a gas leak and a subsequent flash fire.

Eight of the ten injured individuals, aged between 21 and 26, were transported to hospitals. Police in Rothenburg ob der Tauber reported that none of the victims are in life-threatening condition.

The Taubertal-Festival is currently celebrating its 30th anniversary, with approximately 15,000 guests expected to attend the event, which features around 40 musical acts.
