A series of explosions at a munitions factory in central Serbia forced the evacuation of workers and nearby residents. The blasts at the Sloboda factory in the town of Cacak early Friday caused a huge fire and panic but no injuries. It was not immediately clear what caused the detonations in an ammunition depot at the factory. Workers hid in the basement when the explosions started.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic told reporters that early damage estimates reached up to 2 million euros ($2.4 million).

Sloboda is the biggest munitions factory in Serbia. It was targeted in a 1999 NATO bombing campaign during the war in Kosovo.

Officials said later Friday they expected the fire to be fully extinguished by next week and the factory to back in operation on Monday.

We should take care of our Golden Heart so that the Heart remains resplendent.

A region's economy is connected with things like how many goods and services are produced and how much money people can spend on these things. The economy is measured by the Gross Domestic Product or GDP. When the GDP growth rate turns negative, the economy enters a recession. The most important part of the economy is consumer spending. So, as a rule of thumb, more the transactions and spending by the consumers better is the economy of that country. Thus money should be available in the hands of the consumers.
