Tragic Fire in New Zealand Hostel Leaves Multiple Dead and Missing
At least six people have died and 11 remain unaccounted for following a fire in a hostel in Wellington, New Zealand. Emergency services rescued more than 50 people from the four-storey building, but the number of casualties is expected to increase.
The cause of the blaze is still unknown, and authorities are treating the fire as suspicious but not deliberately lit. The building contained asbestos, prompting warnings for locals to wear face masks and keep windows closed to avoid inhaling smoke.
How do you think the authorities can improve safety measures in buildings like hostels to prevent tragic incidents like this fire?
