The warehouse contained clothing and liquor, which further fueled the blaze. Due to the intense flames and smoke, the heat was felt in nearby houses, causing panic among residents, who rushed out of their homes. Fortunately, no casualties have been reported.
The cause of the fire is yet to be determined, but it is suspected that a short circuit may have triggered the incident. With rising temperatures, fire incidents have also been increasing.
