Fire Engulfs Skyscraper In Changsha, China. No Casualty Reported by fergie001(op): 1:36pm On Sep 16, 2022

A major fire has broken out in a skyscraper in the central Chinese city of Changsha, state media have reported, adding that the number of casualties is currently unknown.

“Thick smoke is spewing from the site, and several dozen floors are burning ferociously,” the state broadcaster CCTV reported.

“Firefighters have begun work to extinguish the flames and conduct rescues at the scene,” it added.

The blaze engulfed a tall building that houses an office of state-owned telecommunications company China Telecom, the report said.

A photograph released by CCTV showed flames searing through the building in a built-up area of the city, as black smoke billowed into the sky.

A video posted on social media by a local news outlet appeared to show the outside of the tower charred black.

Changsha, the capital of Hunan province, has a population of about 10 million.

The building, completed in 2000, was once the tallest in Changsha at 218 metres (715 feet). It comprises 42 stories above the ground and two floors underground.

Hunan branch of China Telecom Co had opened a tender for an upgrade of the tower’s firefighting equipment and fire prevention project on 5th September, 11 days before the incident.

The Signs of the times are raging out of control.

Unprecedented fires, heatwave, mudslides, rain, Earthquakes, volcanoes, tornadoes, flood, droughts and all sorts have taken over Nations and places.

The Worse of all is that , it's all Converging at the same time.

Luke 21:28
And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.


The rapture is much closer than you think.
Get ready to meet JESUS.

China Telecom said in a statement on social media: "By around 4:30 pm today, the fire at our No. 2 Communications Tower in Changsha has been extinguished.

"No casualties have yet been discovered and communications have not been cut off."

shocked


See money going down. Even after putting out the fire, the building will fail structural integrity as it is. In this case, 40mm of concrete cover cannot save it.

China will surely overcome this and move much better ahead. If na naija, many crowds will full the incident area with policemen carrying Ak47 just to do eyeservice as if na war.

Ha shocked from top to bottom...

I was thinking it would be a few floors...


The whole thing is gone...

It looks like an electrical malfunction. embarassed

Because that is the only red alert that should be connecting the whole floor.

Modified:

This one looks like sabotage.

Imaging being at the top when the fire started. I have always thought of this. The people above have no hope of survival sha. People that know about skycrappers, what medium do they put in place for people above? Like what safety measures are there in a case of extreme fire outbreak like this?
