On Tuesday afternoon, a fire broke out on the stilt floor of a three-storey residential apartment in Indirapuram, Ghaziabad, India, resulting in the rescue of nine individuals, including three minors and two senior citizens. The blaze was ignited by a leaking LPG cylinder while a guard and his family were cooking. Fortunately, they managed to escape before the fire spread rapidly, engulfing the building in thick smoke. Five fire tenders arrived promptly at 1:30 PM, and the fire was extinguished within an hour. The residents of the upper floors took refuge on the rooftop, where they were rescued by firefighters using ladders. Thankfully, there were no injuries reported, and nearby vehicles were also saved from the fire's reach. Local officials praised the timely response of the fire department, which prevented the fire from spreading further.
