Eight Dead, Several Missing in Massive Warehouse Fire in West Bengal
A devastating fire tore through two adjacent warehouses in the Nazirabad area of South 24 Parganas district, West Bengal, claiming the lives of eight people and leaving several others missing. The blaze, which occurred in units housing workers from a decoration firm and a momo chain, took seven hours for firefighters to bring under control. Rescue teams have recovered eight severely burned bodies, making identification challenging, and officials anticipate the death toll could increase as debris is cleared from the site. Search operations are ongoing with high mast lamps illuminating the area. While a fire service minister emphasized the responsibility of owners for adhering to safety protocols, the incident has also sparked political debate regarding disaster management.
