120 rescued from baths after toxic gas release
A total of 120 people had to be rescued from the Túrkeve thermal baths and the vicinity Tuesday morning because of chlorine poisoning, the website szoljon.hu reported.
Ádám Németh, press officer for the Jász County Disaster Control Directorate, said mixing of two chemical agents for the purpose of purifying the water created a toxic gas that made bathers feel sick.
According to unofficial sources 14 people had to be hospitalised immediately.
