A large explosion rocked Fedha yesterday, engulfing the area in flames and thick black smoke.
Witnesses reported a massive fireball erupting, followed by a plume of smoke rising high above the buildings. The scale of the disaster became clear from a distance, with dark smoke creating a dramatic and concerning scene over the residential and commercial areas.
Thankfully, no casualties have been reported so far, though two individuals were injured. The fire’s close proximity to populated areas caused immediate concern for resident safety and potential further damage.
Shaken residents gathered near the railway tracks close to the explosion site. Some watched the towering inferno, capturing footage on their phones or simply stunned into silence.
Firefighters arrived quickly and are working to extinguish the flames and prevent further spread. Authorities will provide updates on the injured individuals and firefighting progress as the situation develops.
