The emergency search operation continues at the site of the blast
The Applegreen service station located in the village of Creeslough sustained extensive damage in the explosion. The buildings surrounding what is the village’s main shop were also badly damaged.
Irish premier Micheal Martin said his thoughts and prayers were with the entire community of Creeslough. “Thinking too of all the emergency services, from across the north-west and NI working in very traumatic situation,” he tweeted.“It’s very much looking at the unknown at this time, and we’re just broken-hearted, everyone is broken-hearted, we’re lost for words,” Fr Duffy told the PA news agency.
“What I’m appealing for is for the prayers of the people across this county and across the country, to pray for us, to help us and to give us strength to get through these difficult hours and difficult days that may lay ahead.”
