Residents claim the fire started at a plastic waste recycling factory.
It started around 2:00pm on Saturday and extended to at least 6 homes, destroying more than 50 apartments.

An 18-year-old student has been trapped in the fire in his attempt to use an extinguisher to fight the fire in his father's apartment.
