A strong fire spread in a restaurant area in the center of Fukuoka, Japan, after a pot burned in one of the establishments and the fire reached the adjacent businesses. Local media indicated that due to the emergency that was registered in the area, the intervention of up to 20 fire trucks was necessary, which battled the fire that did not stop and continued to spread throughout all the restaurants.
The district, located in the city of Kitakyushu, is known because it is full of restaurants, which is why when the fire spread, it ended up burning down the food businesses that were on the sides of where the fire originated. In addition to the fire, several disasters have been recorded in Japan
This tragedy has not been the only one that has occurred in just three days so far in 2024 in Japan, since in January a 7.5 magnitude earthquake was recorded on the Noto peninsula, which has left homes destroyed, buildings collapsed and so far, more than 70 dead.
