"🚨 MASSIVE FIRE JUST HALTED ALL FLIGHTS AT BANGLADESH'S LARGEST AIRPORT A fire just tore through the cargo section of the main airport serving Bangladesh's capital this afternoon shutting down all flight operations just after 2:30 PM local time. It started near Gate X and escalated fast: XX firefighting units were scrambled including teams from the Air Force and the Border Guard. No planes were damaged no injuries reported and yes somehow everything caught fire except the aircraft. Officials are still figuring out what sparked it but for now Dhaka skies are a no-fly zone.
