Video: Major Fire Erupts in Khimki, Risk of Spread

A major fire has broken out in Khimki, one of Russia's cities, at the building of the Molodyozhny shopping market, leading to a complete blockage of traffic along several highways. The area affected by the fire spans more than 300 square meters.

Currently, there are no reports of casualties. The situation has been rapidly brought under control, and the fire has already been localized. The extinguishing efforts are nearly complete; however, difficulties in combating the fire have arisen due to a nearby gas station, which poses a risk of the fire spreading to adjacent buildings.

Investigations into the cause of the fire are ongoing.
