A hall building in the capital on Soroksári út is on fire in its entirety, the spokesperson of the Metropolitan Disaster Management Directorate told MTI on Thursday morning.
Upon inquiry by MTI, the disaster management revealed that an approximately 800-square-meter hall was on fire, which was being extinguished with 11 water jets.
An explosion also occurred in a neighboring building.
Máté Kisdi said that 50 firefighters with 15 vehicles are trying to control the fire classified as level five, i.e. the highest alarm level. The disaster management later announced that an explosion had occurred in the building next to the burning hall, and the fire had spread from there.
There was also a fire in the workshop affected by the explosion, but it was already extinguished by the experts, the disaster management announced.
There is also a serious and life-threatening injury
Five people were injured in the hall fire, the National Rescue Service told MTI.
According to the information provided by the ambulance service, three men were taken from the scene to the hospital with minor, one man with serious, and one man with serious-life-threatening injuries.
The disaster management extinguished the flames in the hall, and at half past one they started to carry out the post-work, which was used to eliminate the still existing glows.
Blikk has corrected its previous information
The buildings of businessman Zoltán Jákob are located on Soroksári út. Péter Paár, an employee of the artificial nail company group, assistant to the billionaire Glance according to one of his previous articles, he also talked about the fire that destroyed a warehouse of Crystal Nails on Thursday morning.
The previous Blikk information was refuted in an e-mail sent by a staff member of the paper, according to which they corrected their article, so it was not the Crystal Nails building that burned down, and Zoltán Jákob’s assistant did not give his name to this information.
