Explosions at an military base in Turkmenistan

Turkmenistan says two servicemen and 13 civilians died in a series of blasts last week in a town 20 kilometers from the capital, Ashgabat.

The death toll was the first reported by the reclusive Central Asian state since the July 7 explosions.

The TDH news agency said the initial blast went off at a fireworks storage facility in Abadan, with the blazes then spreading to a munitions dump.
