A series of fiery explosions rocked a Serbian army ammunition depot early Thursday, injuring at least 20 people and damaging several buildings in a nearby industrial town, police and hospital officials said. The explosions at the army barracks on a hill near Paracin, about 150 kilometers (90 miles) south of Belgrade, sent huge balls of flames into the sky, and state TV footage showed a cloud of gray smoke billowing from the site. Hospital officials said about 20 people, mostly from Paracin, were treated for wounds caused by broken glass and flying shrapnel. One patient was hospitalized after suffering a shock, they said.
