The blaze at the Wang Fuk Court apartment complex, a development of eight high-rise towers, ignited on Wednesday, according to TASS.
One structure sustained minimal damage, while the other seven were severely affected by the fire. The flames propagated quickly across bamboo scaffolding installed for cosmetic refurbishments. The complex contains nearly 2,000 apartments, accommodating approximately 4,000 residents.
It was the deadliest residential building fire in Hong Kong’s history.
