Publishing house catches fire in Moscow, Russia

Picture

​A large fire broke out at the warehouse of a pro-Kremlin publishing house near Moscow in the early hours of Tuesday morning, 3 May 2022. At around midnight in the Bogorodsk urban district of the Moscow region, the warehouse of the Prosveshchenie publishing house, where printed materials such as school books were stored, burst into flames, Belarusian news outlet Nexta reported. Almost 34 thousand square metres were burning. Emergency services told Tass that there was a partial collapse of the warehouse and that there was a threat to the neighbouring one, located some 10 metres away. Videos published by Nexta showed flames engulfing the building and huge plumes of smoke as emergency services attempted to contain the blaze. Fire fighters eventually managed to contain the blaze, TASS reported, noting that the blaze received the third rank of complexity out of five. Over 100 people and 37 pieces of equipment were involved in putting out the fire.
 
It isn't yet clear whether any casualties were reported in the incident.
 
The blaze is the latest major unexplained fire in Russia, including at sensitive facilities, in recent weeks. Fires and explosions have also broken out at Russia's largest chemical plant, storage depots and a defence research site. Russia has not commented on what has caused these mysterious blazes.
 
The press service of the Russian Emergencies Ministry told Russia's state-run news agency TASS that by roughly 03h00am local time, the area of the blaze was at almost 34 000 square metres.
 
"The building is on fire throughout the area," the ministry said.
