The Ministry of Emergency Situations explained why it was not possible to extinguish the fire at Sadovod

Emergency Situations Ministry employees cannot urgently put out a fire at the Sadovod clothing market in Moscow. Rescuers are hampered by dense buildings and a large fire load. The department reported this.

“Sadovod” is one of the most famous clothing markets in Moscow. The fire occurred in the afternoon, closer to 12:00 (Moscow time). According to the Shot telegram channel, two people were injured as a result of the incident. About a hundred people are fighting the fire.
