Bodies of the fourth and fifth victims were recovered on floor -9, one of the floors flooded after the explosion. Thousands of people took to the streets on the occasion of the national general strike promoted by CGIL and UIL.

In Bologna the Prosecutor's Office has opened a case for disaster and manslaughter and is now aiming to shed light on the subcontracting chain. Mainly last night was dedicated to the reclamation of a layer of water that invades the premises where the explosion occurred: in particular, the oils and hydrocarbons present on the surface were almost completely removed. Various divers are diving and one couple at a time is going down: the difficulty is due to the reduced visibility and the presence of parts deriving from the related collapse to the explosion, says the Fire Brigade commander of the Bolognese Apennines. The 25-year-old Nicholas Bernardini was released from Bufalini's hospital with a 30-day prognosis for burns to his hands.
