Fire Kills Over 100 at Dhaka, Bagladesh

A devastating fire raced through several apartment complexes in the capital, Dhaka, on Thursday night, killing more than 100 people and injuring dozens, officials and local media reported. A fire official, Nazrul Islam, said the blaze started when an electric transformer exploded, igniting a three-story apartment building in the Najirabazar area of old Dhaka. He said “many bodies” had been recovered. The television station ATN Bangla reported Friday that at least 104 people had died, and that more than 100 people were injured.
