Sharif Chowdhury, a local resident, told TBS that the incident took place in the area adjacent to the Chaitatali East Mosque. This entire area is a residential area. The foam factory was set up a few months ago.
In addition to foam, the factory contained gum and chemicals that escalated the fire rapidly, spreading panic among residents of the area. However, the fire service could bring the fire under control in less time due to rain, he added.
