The death toll from the Hong Kong tower fire has risen to 146, with about 100 people still missing. The blaze tore through seven towers of the Wang Fuk Court complex on Wednesday and burned for two days. Search teams say the inside of the buildings is dark and unsafe, making the work slow. Many residents had earlier warned officials about the flammable materials used during renovation. Public anger is growing, and thousands have visited the site to lay flowers and demand answers. Authorities have suspended 28 projects by the contractor and made several arrests as investigations continue. (PC: Sky News)
