The fire broke out shortly before midnight on Tuesday local time. Witnesses said that the fire started from the parking floor of the multi-storey building.
Vietnam News Agency reported that local authorities rescued about 70 people from the scene. Of these, 54 people have been taken to hospital. Many people lost their lives in the accident. According to a statement, it was a terrible fire.
The fire was brought under control on Wednesday morning. However, the rescue workers are still working to rescue the survivors. The high-rise building is located in a narrow alley in the southwestern city of Hanoi. That’s why it was very difficult to enter there after the fire.
The building is constructed in such a way that no one can get out easily after the accident. Last year, 32 people lost their lives in a fire in a high-rise building in Ho Chi Minh City, the country’s commercial hub. Another 17 people were injured in the accident. At that time, the owner of the building was arrested for violating fire-prevention regulations.
Such accidents have occurred frequently in Vietnam in the past few years. Fires have also been reported in the country’s entertainment centers such as popular karaoke bars.
