The 1917 Kazan Gunpowder Plant fire began on 14 August 1917 in the city of Kazan, which was then center of governorate within the Russian Empire, destroying the plant and spreading panic in the city on 14–16 August, which lasted at least until 24 August. Fire resulted in minor detonations of the shells in depots, scattered over the industrial part of the city. However, most of the explosives were flooded by water from emergency reservoirs; that prevented a major explosion. 13 were killed by the blast and fire, 8 died of wounds, and 172, including 30 children, were injured. The fire destroyed 12,000 machine guns and one million shells in depots (78,500 poods), and 542 buildings were destroyed, 152 of them totally. In addition, 1.8 million poods (29.5 tonnes) of oil were lost to the fire.

  • Пожар на Казанском пороховом заводе — пожар на заводе в 1917 году, погиб 21 человек. Пожар начался 14 августа и привёл к уничтожению заводов и распространению паники в городе 14—16 августа. Пожар, продолжавшийся по меньшей мере до 24 августа, возник в результате взрыва снарядов на складах, разбросанных по промышленной части города. Тем не менее большая часть взрывчатых веществ была затоплена водой из водохранилищ, что предотвратило более крупные взрывы. Тринадцать человек погибли в результате взрыва и пожара, восемь умерли от ран, в том числе и начальник порохового завода Всеволод Всеволодович Лукницкий, а 172, в том числе 30 детей, были ранены. Пожарами было уничтожено 12 000 пулемётов (всего в Первую мировую войну было произведено и доставлено на фронт около 30 000 пулемётов) и один милл (ru)
