Myingyan, April 6

An overheated phone charger sparked a fire that destroyed a two-story house in Ward-2 of Myingyan, Myingyan Township of Mandalay Region. The blaze quickly spread to a nearby wall, consuming the corrugated iron-roofed, wooden-floored home belonging to Daw Cho Thin Lwin.

District and township firefighters, alongside Red Cross volunteers and charitable organizations, successfully extinguished the fire.

Police have opened a case against the homeowner in connection with the blaze.—Chit Oo Nwe (Myingyan)
