Search for survivors after fire engulfs Sudan factory

The emergency services have been evacuating the bodies of victims and searching for survivors after a fire swept through a ceramics factory in Sudan’s capital, Khartoum.

State television reported “heavy losses of life and property”.

The cause of the fire is unclear, but an explosion was heard before the building went up in flames. “The explosion was loud.

Several cars that were parked in the compound of the factory also caught fire,” an employee of an adjacent factory told AFP news agency. Doctors say at least 15 people have been killed and nearly 100 wounded.
