At least 43 dead in Bangladesh building fire

On Thursday, a devastating fire broke out in a commercial building in Dhaka, Bangladesh, resulting in the death of at least 43 people. The fire reportedly started on the lower floors of the building and quickly spread to the upper levels.

Authorities are still investigating the cause of the fire, but initial reports suggest that it may have been sparked by an electrical malfunction. The building lacked proper fire safety measures, making it difficult for people to escape once the flames broke out.

Firefighters worked tirelessly to contain the blaze and rescue those trapped inside the building. The injured were rushed to nearby hospitals for treatment, but sadly, many did not survive their injuries.

The incident has once again raised concerns about the lack of fire safety regulations in Bangladesh and the need for stricter enforcement to prevent such tragedies in the future.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the victims during this difficult time.
