Fire engulfs “Geophysics Expedition” enterprise in Bukhara for the second time

In a devastating turn of events, the "Geophysics Expedition" enterprise, located in the Kogon district of the Bukhara region, caught fire once again. The Regional Emergency Management's Information Service reported the incident, emphasizing the urgency of the situation.

The fire broke out on June 11 at 12:37 a.m. within the premises of the "Geophysics Expedition" enterprise, situated within the "Geofizika" neighborhood territory in the Kogon district. Six fire-rescue vehicles were deployed to the scene, arriving promptly at 12:43 a.m., and successfully extinguished the fire by 1:16 p.m.

Approximately 40 square meters of wooden devices beneath the building's roof were engulfed in flames, causing significant damage. The exact cause of the fire and the extent of the material losses are yet to be determined. Fortunately, no injuries or fatalities were reported among the local residents.

This incident comes as a grim reminder of a previous fire that occurred on June 4 at the same enterprise. On that occasion, a blaze consumed an area of 50 square meters on the fourth floor of the building, affecting the wooden structures supporting the roof.

Authorities are now launching an investigation to determine the underlying causes of both fires and to implement measures to prevent such incidents in the future. The safety of the employees and the surrounding community remains a top priority for the regional authorities.

The "Geophysics Expedition" enterprise, known for its scientific research and geophysical surveys, plays a crucial role in the region. The impact of these recent fires on its operations and the community it serves is yet to be fully assessed.

Local authorities and emergency response teams are working closely to support the affected enterprise and ensure the safety of the surrounding area.
