An overnight fire in a retirement home in Milan killed six people and injured around 80, including three who are in a critical condition, Italian authorities said
The fire started in a first-floor room of the facility. It was put out quickly and did not spread to the rest of the building, yet produced a vast quantity of toxic fumes.
"It could have been worse. Having said that, six dead is a very heavy death toll," Sala said, indicating that the facility housed 167 people. Firefighters intervened at the "Home of the Spouses" residential facility in the south-eastern Corvetto neighbourhood shortly after 1 a.m. . He described rescue operations as "particularly complicated" due to heavy smoke, which limited visibility, and the fact that many residents could not stand without aid.
