Three Women Dead in Factory Fire in Trikala

A large fire broke out early Monday morning at a biscuit factory (VIOLANTA) in Trikala, resulting in the death of three women. The fire started shortly before 4:00 a.m. and was accompanied by an explosion. There were 11 people in the factory, 5 of whom were initially missing and 6 were taken to hospital. Firefighters later found the bodies of the three missing workers. A firefighter was also injured and taken to hospital. The explosion was so powerful that it was heard over a large distance and caused damage to nearby homes. A section of the factory has collapsed.
