Mexico City has been left reeling after a catastrophic road disaster that unfolded on September 10, 2025, along the busy Iztapalapa–Chalco highway. What began as an ordinary weekday commute turned into a nightmare when an LPG tanker carrying more than 13,000 gallons of liquefied petroleum gas overturned and exploded. Within seconds of the rollover, the highly flammable cargo ignited, unleashing a towering fireball that lit up the morning sky and sent thick plumes of black smoke spiraling above the densely populated neighborhoods nearby.
