Islamabad: A devastating fire broke out near the vegetable market in Sector I-11, reducing 6 buses to ashes.
The local police suspect that the fire was sparked due to a short circuit in the overhead electric lines.

Rescue teams rushed to the scene and managed to control the fire that had engulfed the buses.
However, despite their efforts, all 6 buses were completely burnt.
