ONE person has died after a huge explosion ripped through a block of flats in the Netherlands with cops now hunting for a car.

Rescuers are searching for survivors in the three-storey building in The Hague after the blast at around 6.15am this morning.

Police are searching for a motor that drove away "at very high speed" shortly after the blast and have appealed for witnesses.

Residents at the block in the city's Mariahoeve neighbourhood were asleep at the time of the explosion.

Emergency services were called after a huge bang and loud screams were heard.

Several apartments were completely destroyed in the explosion while others around it collapsed.

Balconies could be seen lying on the ground while walls had toppled over.

A blaze broke out following the explosion with firefighters putting it out.

Rescuers are now looking for up to 20 people thought to have been in the block at the time of the blast.

Four have been pulled from the rubble so far with a line of ambulances parked near the building ready to take people to hospital.

So far the ‘salad bowl’ replacement of the ‘melting pot’ has only hurt the libs that dreamed up, taught and supported it but the crappers that the libs created are starting to over flow and the mess is spreading.

Bring them, bring there.

Was the perp a Muslim or was it a Muslim?
No, forgot, perhaps it was a Muslim.
The religion of hate, bringing their awfulness to the world.

The Netherlands has recently instituted policies to shut off illegal immigration.

Yes, that’s a little like shutting the henhouse door after the fox has entered.

Only thing I remember about The Hague was going to Madurodam a few times. Glad to see it’s still in operation. It was a great place for stress reduction. IIRC it was about a 4 hour drive from my apartment in Germany.

I blame Kamala.

It was only a matter of time before her word salad exploded...
