  3. October 24: There was an explosion on the top floor of a residential building in Dalian City, Liaoning Province.
  4. October 24: A lab at the Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Jiangsu Province, had an explosion.
  5. October 25: An explosion occurred on the food vendor street outside the Huangdao Campus of Shandong University of Science and Technology, Qiangdao, Shandong Province. The whole street was burned out.
  6. October 26: An explosion occurred at Shandong Ding Ding Chemical Technology Co. in Zibo City, Shandong Province.
  7. October 26: An explosion occurred in a residential building in Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province.
  8. October 26: Nine fishing boats caught on fire in Zhuhai City, Guangdong Province.
  9. October 27: A building under construction in Tianjin City was caught on fire.
  10. October 27: A fire broke out at a factory building and the hotel next to it in Zhongshan City, Guangdong Province.

Political commentators expressed the thought that it was abnormal to see so many explosions or even the intensified reporting on the explosions, as the Chinese Communist Party tends to filter out negative news to portray a “stable” society.
