Khewra is a city in Punjab’s district of Jehlum.
The explosion – reportedly carried out to make way inside the mine – went wrong and resulted in casualties.
Rescue workers are yet to reach the site.
Earlier in January, an explosion in Orakzai Agency caused a mine to cave in, killing two coal miners and severely injuring five others.
