Unplanned urbanisation over the last decade has worsened fire risks in the cities, but firefighters have not been given additional training and proper equipment so they can deal with the heightened threats and the changing nature of fire incidents.
"I am very disappointed. We work for the people. We sacrifice our lives for the people… but they attacked us"
Due to delays in procurement, firemen are yet to get the modern equipment they need for faster response to fires, fight blazes with efficiency, and reduce risks.
A fire that broke out at a warehouse of a company in Gulshan-1 of Dhaka has been brought under control.
Police recovered 32 more magazines from a canal in Uttara during a further raid where a huge stash of arms and ammunition were recovered yesterday.
Fire service has launched a four-member investigation panel into last night's blaze at Karwan Bazar that gutted over 180 shops in capital Dhaka’s largest retail kitchen market.
The fire that broke out at a multistoried building in Paltan area of Dhaka was brought under control after around half an hour.
