Blaze Breaks Out in Phnom Penh Warehouse

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Fire rips through warehouse in capital

A fire ripped through a kitchenware warehouse yesterday afternoon in Phnom Penh, damaging products stored inside.

Lieutenant Colonel Oum Chantha, deputy chief of the municipal fire department, said the fire broke out at about 2.30pm at the warehouse located in Chbar Ampov district’s Chbar Ampov II commune.

“We used about 20 fire trucks to put out the fire. The situation is 100 percent under control,” Lt Col Chantha said. “We do not yet know what caused the fire and the costs of the damages. No one died or was injured when the fire broke out at the warehouse.”

He added that the kitchen products stored inside the warehouse were imported from Thailand and Vietnam.
