At least 16 boats were engulfed in a fire at a storm shelter in Hong Kong early on Sunday, after which 10 boats were sunk. The fire broke out at the ‘Aberdeen South’ storm shelter at 2.30 am and was brought under control after more than six hours. According to public broadcaster RTHK, firefighters rescued 35 people from the boats.
According to the report, no one was injured in this, but a person was taken to the hospital after feeling unwell. According to the information, a fire broke out in Hong Kong’s Typhoon Shelter at around 2:30 am. The fire was so terrible that the fire brigade brought it under control after working hard for six hours.
Four teams found the fire under control
According to media reports, the fire brigade used 11 fire boat monitors and eight jets to douse the fire. According to the information, four teams together brought the situation under control. Earlier, a fire on a cargo ship off the coast of Sri Lanka had made international headlines and attracted the attention of environmentalists. The risk of ‘environmental tragedy and pollution’ has arisen after the cargo ship caught fire.
The ‘poison’ has dissolved in the water after the cargo ship sank in the sea area of Sri Lanka. Because of this, the life of sea creatures has come to an end. So far more than 100 turtles, a dozen dolphins and a blue whale have been found dead on the beach. After the sinking of this ship, there has been a possibility of death of many sea creatures.
fire burning for 12 days
Ecologists believe that the death of aquatic organisms is directly related to the fire in the ship and the release of dangerous chemicals from it. The Singapore-flagged Express Pearl ship caught fire for 12 days. It sank last week near Colombo’s main port. However, government officials said that these causes related to the aquatic life have been provisionally confirmed and a thorough investigation is yet to be done.
