YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

At least 13 people were killed after a huge fire engulfed several high-rise buildings in an apartment complex in Hong Kong, the city’s emergency services said on Nov. 26.

The fire broke out at Wang Fuk Court in Tai Po, a northeastern district in Hong Kong’s New Territories, just before 3 p.m. local time, authorities said. Officials have not yet commented on the cause of the blaze.

Construction work was underway on the towers before the fire, and falling debris and scaffolding from the buildings pose an additional risk to the public and emergency personnel, authorities said at the news conference.
