Seven people have been killed and dozens more reportedly injured in an explosion at a nursery school in China.

State media reported the blast tore through the area as children were being collected from school in the city of Xuzhou in Jiangsu province.

Mobile phone footage posted on the website of the official People's Daily newspaper showed more than a dozen people lying motionless in front of the nursery's steel sliding gate.

Images show the force of the blast had torn the clothes from some of those lying motionless on the ground.
