Fire has erupted at a fabric warehouse located in Terry Bazar, one of Chattogram’s largest wholesale clothing markets. The blaze ignited around 7:30 pm on Sunday on the first floor of the six-storey Khwaja Bipani building, as reported by the Agrabad Fire Service Control Room.
Md Abdullah, the deputy assistant director of the Fire Service, stated that six fire units from three different stations have been deployed to combat the fire. “The fire originated on the first floor, which accommodates various shops and warehouses. The cause of the fire and the extent of the damage are still under investigation,” he noted.
