Fire damages Bangkok's Polish Embassy

BANGKOK: -- A fire broke out at the Polish Embassy to Thailand early Tuesday morning, damaging part of the premise and injuring a diplomatic official.

The Polish Embassy is located in Soi Sukhumvit 5 of Bangkok's Wattana district.

The incident took place at around 4.30am when the blaze began on the third floor and spread to the fourth floor, where Polish diplomatic staff reside. The blaze was brought under control within hours.

The fire damaged two floors of the rented five-storey building and caused minor burns to a diplomatic official.

An investigation by metropolitan police showed that the fire was caused by an electrical short-circuit.

The incident took place just hours before the embassy was scheduled to move to a new location, according to the embassy.

I detest Trump for a variety of reasons, and now he's given me one more. Despite the grave misgivings I, and many, many more, had going into this WC ( ICE, the visa issues, a top referee turned away, the treatment of the Iranian team etc.) the WC was turning into a great success, bringing people from all over the world together, including lots of Americans, many of who seemed to develop an interest in, and an enjoyment of, the beautiful game. Partly, this was because of an American side that pl

Trump has re-defined corruption

spidermike007 · July 1Jul 1

And many of his supporters don't even seem to care as they have become numb to his misdeeds, and still believe his lies. A large chunk of the $2 billion haul President Trump took in last

https://leavingmaga.org/ Dear MAGA Americans, I was a devoted member of MAGA nation for seven years; it made me feel I was part of something important: a movement that was trying to save American democracy.
