The incident occurred at around 1 pm today. <br /><br />While some reports claimed that there was a blast, others suggested that it was only a gas leak due to the malfunctioning of the Carbon Dioxide unit.<br /><br />The Navy said in a statement, "Yard-701 had a malfunction, leading to gas leakage. One naval officer and some MDL personnel have been hospitalised." <br /><br />However, multiple reports have claimed that a Naval officer of Commander rank died in the mishap.
