Firefighters were progressing with caution at the BM Depot in Chattogram yesterday after four containers were found to be filled with hydrogen peroxide, the chemical that could have caused the series of explosions since the fire broke out on Saturday night.
At least four people were killed and more than 100 others, including police and firefighters, were injured in a fire and explosions at a private container depot in Sitakunda of Chattogram late last night.
“My son is safe and well now,” informed the mother of the chief engineer of state-owned vessel Banglar Samriddhi which was abandoned by all the Bangladeshi sailors yesterday evening, a day after it came under attack near a Ukrainian port leaving a crew member dead.
