A devastating fire swept through a six-story building in Dhaka, Bangladesh, killing at least 43 people and injuring dozens. The blaze, believed to have started in a restaurant, rapidly spread, leaving 22 critically burned individuals in hospitals. Firefighters from 13 units brought the situation under control after two intense hours. The cause remains uncertain, but authorities suggest a possible gas leak or stove-related origin. Survivors, like Mohammad Altaf, shared harrowing escapes, with two coworkers losing their lives. Rescue efforts involved a crane to retrieve people from the charred structure.
