A series of explosions shook the northern Chinese city of Tianjin late Wednesday, killing 17 people and injuring more than 300, according to officials and state media.

The cause was not immediately clear.

The initial explosion erupted at a warehouse for a logistics company at a port area, according to Tianjin police. The company was identified as Tianjin Dongjiang Port Rui Hai International Logistics Co. Ltd.

The state-run Xinhua news agency reported the explosion tore through a warehouse storing "dangerous goods" in the Binhai New Area.

Video from the scene showed a blinding blast of light and smoke that sent fireballs shooting across the night sky. As day broke Thursday, the extent of the damage was beginning to be made clear.

The initial blast triggered secondary explosions, setting off local tremors, according to Xinhua. Residents said the blast shattered windows and fish tanks.

The People's Daily and CCTV, China's state-owned broadcaster, reported that 17 people were killed. CCTV said that more than 400 people were injured, while the People's Daily said some 315 were hurt, 32 of them critically.

Xinhua had reported earlier that most of the injuries were from stones or broken glass.

The firefighting division of the Chinese Public Security Ministry said firefighters were first called to the scene about a fire. An explosion happened after they arrived and it damaged buildings and infrastructure. Four firefighters were injured and two more have lost contact, according to the ministry.

Steven Jiang reported from Beijing. Dana Ford reported and wrote from Atlanta. CNN's Kevin Wang and Don Melvin contributed to this report.

kadoda11 Siku hizi naona umeboreka na unakipandisha Kingereza balaa, itakua unahudhuria hizo shule zilizozagaa Dar na zenye mabango kama hili "learn English in six months"....hehehehe!!

That was on a light note, anyway, why do you people find solace in sufferings of others. Are you aware there are more causalities still succumbing due to the serious burns as a result of the explosion. Reminds me how most of you guys were flooding JF with your usual taunts as bodies were piling up during the Garissa college massacre. You should confine yourself into a corner and reflect on some of your demeaning hostilities.

Jameni Wachina poleni kwa hayo majanga, tutazidi kuwaombea.

Maze, hapa EAC tunafaa tuchange kila nchi mamilioni ya dolla kila mwaka ili tuunde an EA disaster management operation center ambayo itakua na helicopeters za kumwaga maji kwa moto mkubwa na kusafirisha watu, meli za ku okoa watu kukitoka janga baharini ama ziwani victoria, ama kuzoa mafuta ya oil yakimwagika bararini yakisafirishwa karibu na EA, ama ku deal na piracy coast ya EA. Pia tuwe na madaktari kama wa CDC, wagonjwa kama ebola yakitokea, tuwe na pesa na uwezo wakutumia technologia za juu kujitoa kwa majanga, maana vile tulivyo sasa, sioni kama tunaweza jisaidia kukitoka janga kubwa,.

Imajin ndege ya boeing ile kubwa kabisa ianguke katikati ya mji mkuu na kuuharibu na kabisa, je, tuko na uwezo wa kuokoa watu wengi kama hivyo? na mahospitali yana uwezo wa kuchukua watu wengi hivyo kweli bila usaidizi wa nchi jirani?
