Mumbai: A horrifying fire in a residential building in Mumbai has claimed the lives of seven individuals while leaving more than 40 others with burn injuries.
The tragic incident unfolded in the city's Gurgaon area, sending shockwaves throughout the community.
Indian media reports detail that the fire broke out around 3 a.m. on a Friday morning, engulfing the building and even incinerating several vehicles parked nearby.
In the immediate aftermath, authorities swiftly arrived at the scene to initiate firefighting operations and evacuate the injured individuals, rushing them to nearby hospitals for urgent medical attention.
