An explosion at the southern France nuclear facility of Marcoule killed one person and wounded four Monday.

 

The blast at the facility, which recycles plutonium from nuclear weapons to make fuel to provide electricity, was caused by a “fire near a furnace in the Centraco radioactive waste storage site,” the BBC reported.

The facility’s owner, French national electricity provider EDF, described the explosion as “an industrial accident, not a nuclear accident.”
