[smh]"Two plumbers remain in hospital, one in a critical condition, after a gas explosion on the 29th floor of an apartment block in Sydney's eastern suburbs yesterday.
The men, aged 22 and 20, received serious facial and hand burns in the blast, which ripped apart walls on the 29th floor of the unit block on Spring Street, Bondi Junction, about 12.40pm.
It is believed the explosion was caused by a ruptured gas pipe in the eastern tower above Bondi Junction's Eastgate shopping complex.
Most of the 200 or so residents evacuated yesterday were allowed back into their units overnight.
But police warned the building would have little or no power, water or gas supply for at least the next three days."
