A massive blaze raged through a retail complex with 3,000 shops in Dhaka, Bangladesh, on April 4, 2023. There were no immediate reports of casualties but almost all shops were destroyed. Bongo Bazar market is popular among bargain shoppers looking for Western fashion brands. The market sells clothes produced in the city’s textile factories that have failed export-standard checks. The blaze broke out just ahead of Eid, the biggest Muslim festival in the country.
