Warehouse Fire in Nonthaburi: Firefighters Struggle to Contain Blaze

[Georgealbert]

 

 

A fire broke out in the early hours of October 9, at a warehouse storing household goods in Soi Bang Phlap 3, located in Bang Phlap sub-district, Pak Kret district, Nonthaburi province. The blaze, which started around 03:30 quickly spread throughout the whole building. Firefighters are still working to bring the flames under control.

 

The cause of the fire remains unknown, and emergency crews will be conducting investigations to determine the origin of the blaze. Due to the nature of the materials stored in the warehouse, which include various household items, the fire has proven difficult to suppress, with thick smoke and intense heat hampering efforts.

 

 

Local authorities have cordoned off the area for safety reasons, and nearby residents have been advised to stay indoors and avoid the site. There have been no reports of injuries or casualties at this time, though officials are monitoring the situation closely.

 

Firefighting teams from surrounding districts have been called in for support to stop the spread to any  neighbouring residential properties. The exact extent of the damage has yet to be determined, but it is expected to be significant due to the size of the warehouse and the materials inside.
