Explosion
The hotel was struck by a suspected gas explosion from a gas leak. The explosion destroyed entire sections of the building and damaged nearby buildings such as El Capitolio, Teatro Martí, and the Calvary Baptist Church. The façade of the building was almost entirely destroyed, and parts of it collapsed onto the street, crushing cars and people as well as sending debris flying through the air. As not all of the building was destroyed, remaining rooms could be seen damaged from the street.Casualties
99 people were reported as injured, of which 52 were discharged and 47 had died. All but one of the dead were Cuban citizens, while the other was a Spanish tourist. Among the dead were four teenagers, a pregnant woman and a child. On May 10, it was reported that twenty-three of the 51 people who were working at the hotel at the time were killed, and three workers remained missing. The bodies of all the missing people were later recovered.
