Southeast Asia Information (www.dnyxxg.com) – In the early hours of October 30, 2025, a serious residential fire occurred in Ta Khmau, Kandal Province, resulting in one death and one injury. The injured person has been taken to the hospital for treatment.
Police reported that the deceased was a 37-year-old man named Sopo, and the injured person was a 48-year-old woman named Sokhonn.
According to reports from the scene, Sopo and Sokhonn were trapped on the upper floor of the house when the fire broke out, and the fire originated on the staircase, blocking their escape route.
Furthermore, the house was located in a relatively remote area, approximately 600 meters from the main road, and there was no direct road access by vehicle, which complicated the rescue efforts.
Preliminary investigations indicate that the fire was caused by a short circuit. Upon receiving the fire alarm, local authorities immediately mobilized resources to the scene for rescue and firefighting operations. Using fire extinguishers and water pumps, rescue workers successfully extinguished the fire, preventing it from spreading further.
