At least 35 people died in a building fire early Wednesday in Kuwait. Another 15 people were injured in the fire, which broke out in the southern Mangaf district.
The fire had been brought under control and that authorities were combing the area for evidence as to the cause of the blaze, quoted Maj. Gen. Eid al-Oweihan, head of forensic evidence at the Interior Ministry.
Kuwait, a nation with some 4.2 million people that’s slightly smaller than the U.S. state of New Jersey, has the world’s sixth-largest known oil reserves.
A fire at an oil refinery in 2022 killed four people.
