A new CCTV footage, which captured the exact moment the white Hyundai i20 car exploded in the middle of heavy evening traffic near Delhi's Red Fort earlier this week, has emerged.
The footage, recorded by a traffic camera near Red Fort Metro Station Gate Number 1, shows the car moving slowly amid autos, e-rickshaws and other vehicles before it suddenly bursts into flames.
Within seconds, the vehicle is engulfed by a huge red fireball, followed by a thick plume of smoke rising into the sky, sending nearby commuters running for safety.
The impact of the blast was so intense that several nearby vehicles were damaged. The area was immediately thrown into chaos as people scrambled to help the injured.
