Citizens put out massive fire in Socotra

SOCOTRA, July 26 (YPA) – A massive fire broke out in a popular vegetable market in the city of Hadibo, the capital of the Socotra archipelago province, in the south of Yemen.

According to local sources, a huge fire broke out on Tuesday evening in a popular market for selling vegetables, causing great damage to the property of vendors and shoppers without any human losses.

The sources pointed out that the citizens were able, through self-efforts, to control the fire in light of the lack of response from the local authorities affiliated with the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC), which controls the province.
