This is stated on the website of the department.

It is noted that the incident occurred as a result of deformation of the gas hose.

“A man was involved in the assembly and installation of the kitchen in the apartment of house No. 19, located on Gusev Boulevard in the city of Tver. During the dismantling and installation of kitchen cabinets, he committed violations that led to deformation of the gas hose connecting the gas pipe and gas stove, ”the statement says.

It is specified that this subsequently led to the popping of gas.

“The spouses living there were injured and burns of varying severity, including at least 70% of the burns on the surface of the body,” the agency added.

Previously, investigators began checking after a gas explosion in a residential building in Tver, where two people were injured in the incident.

In January 2019, a member of the Federation Council Committee on Constitutional Legislation and State Building, Irina Rukavishnikova, in an interview with the NSN, spoke about measures to prevent household gas explosions in homes.
