LAHORE, Pakistan (AP) — Officials say a gas explosion in the Pakistani city of Faisalabad has caused several buildings to collapse and killed a dozen people.

City official Tariq Sardar says another 28 people were wounded when gas cylinders stored in a two-story building exploded Wednesday. The building collapsed along with several adjoining shops.

Rescue workers are searching for other victims feared buried under the rubble.

Sardar says the cylinders belonged to a business that was supplying ammonia gas to nearby hospitals. He says the business was operating illegally.
