A minimum of 36 individuals have lost their lives in the fire at the apartment complex in Hong Kong, as stated by Hong Kong Chief Executive John Lee during a press conference on Wednesday while the flames persist into the early morning hours.
He stated that 279 individuals are “unreachable” and 29 individuals have been admitted to the hospital, with at least seven in serious condition.
“I feel sorrow over their passing and extend heartfelt sympathy to the families of the lost and those who were hurt.” “We will offer all required support,” Lee informed the media.
Lee stated that the reason for the fire is still being investigated.
