Last Tuesday, September 26, a serious fire was also reported in the province of Nineveh, in Iraq. The situation occurred inside a venue where a wedding was taking place.

Apparently, the roof of the place caught fire as a result of the fireworks and, because of this, the flames began to fall rapidly, while everyone rushed to leave the site as quickly as possible, although unfortunately there were many who did not make it.

The emergency completely destroyed the place, as confirmed by the same Police. “Most of the wounded were completely burned. And others had between 50% and 60% of their bodies burned,” said Ahmed Dubardani, deputy director of the Health Directorate of Nineveh, the province where the events occurred.

Faced with this situation, the authorities have called on citizens to take extreme measures when carrying out any type of activity, in order to avoid this type of tragedies. In addition, the Government declared three days of mourning for the victims.
