Four workers were killed in a gas-related explosion that struck a central Baghdad restaurant on Sunday, civil defence and medical sources in the Iraqi capital said. The three-storey building, which housed the restaurant, completely collapsed after its gas system exploded, they added. Rescue teams retrieved the bodies of four workers — three Iraqis and a Bangladeshi man — after hours of searching through the rubble, they said. — dpa
