One person was killed and six were injured in an accident involving firecrackers in Andhra Pradesh's Eluru district. A man on a two-wheeler was carrying a shipment of 'onion bombs' - a speciality Diwali firecracker - when the bike hit a pothole near a local temple, and the 'bombs' fell off and exploded.

Reports suggest the shipment of Diwali 'bombs' had the same explosive power as an IED, or improvised explosive device.

CCTV footage of the tragedy showed two men on a white scooter driving at speed through a narrow street; this was at 12.17 pm. The bike explodes as it approaches a point where the street widens and meets a main road. There was a small group of men - five to six - at the junction.
