Aftermath of Bangkok’s deadly pub fire that killed at least 27 people

Bangkok

Footage shows the aftermath of a deadly fire that ravaged a Bangkok pub, killing at least 27 people.

In the early hours of Monday (13 July), a blaze broke out at Rong Beer Na Lat Phrao pub whilst a band was playing, with the venue soon becoming engulfed in smoke and flames.

Many of the victims were found inside bathrooms at the back of the pub. Emergency exits had been obstructed by beer crates and tables, according to Chadchart Sittipunt, Bangkok’s governor.

Footage shows the charred remains of the beer hall, as firefighters and police officers inspect the destroyed building.
