A fire broke out today, October 8, in a warehouse located in the "Jeke Terek" mahalla of Nukus, Republic of Karakalpakstan. The Ministry of Emergency Situations reported the incident.
According to the report, at 12:47 p.m., emergency services were notified of the fire, which occurred in a warehouse storing construction materials. Within six minutes, four fire-rescue teams arrived at the scene. The fire was successfully contained by 1:09 p.m. and fully extinguished by 1:15 p.m.
