Srinagar, June 11, 2023 (PPI-OT): A masjid, a school and at least four houses were gutted in a blaze in the Gurez valley of north Kashmir’s Bandipora district on Saturday night. With the structures in the valley being mostly wooden, the locals shared apprehensions that the fire would go out of control. Many locals had joined the efforts to put out the fire.
Sub Divisional Magistrate of Gurez, Mudasir Ahamd, told the media that preliminary reports suggest a mosque and a government middle school, besides four to five other structures, were engulfed in the blaze. The flames were being doused off by Fire and Emergency personnel when the reports last came in.
