According to the local public security office, the explosion happened at about 10am local time.
Harrowing footage from inside the building shows bodies lying underneath rubble and blood on the walls.
One witness told Beijing Tou Tiao she was working when she heard an explosion and the sound of glass smashing.
“At the time I thought it was a car crash but then I saw smoke coming out of the committee office and heard people saying that they suspected there had been an explosion,” she said.
