Four fatalities in a fire in Valencia
A tragic fire has rocked the Campanar neighborhood of Valencia, leaving four fatalities. Authorities are still working to identify the victims, as the bodies have not been identified by the head down. The fire started yesterday afternoon and the flames quickly spread throughout the building, making rescue operations difficult.
Difficulties in rescue tasks
Firefighters have not yet been able to enter the building, as the flames are very fierce and the risk of an unstable structure is high. In addition, authorities have reported that fourteen people are untraceable, but this number could still vary as they continue to seek contact with all residents. The building was inhabited by families of foreign nationality, which complicates contact tasks.
The origin of the fire
The fire started in one of the blocks of flats and quickly spread to the other. The cause of the fire is still being investigated and no possibility has been ruled out. Local authorities have activated a victim helpline for any information or support needed.
