Recently, there have been many fires in high-rise buildings and apartment buildings across the country, some of which have caused great damage to people and property. Therefore, raising awareness and fire prevention skills has received special attention from the Government, ministries, departments, branches and localities.

In Nghe An alone, there are currently about 80 apartment buildings, most of which are located in Vinh City. The current apartment buildings still have many potential fire and explosion risks such as lack of fire prevention equipment, tiger cages, no emergency exits, and low public awareness of fire prevention.

During the drill, a simulated fire situation at the Bong Sen apartment building was also carried out. Accordingly, the fire started on the 5th floor of the apartment building due to the carelessness of the residents in using heat sources.

Due to the large fire, the fire spread quickly, making it difficult for people to escape. On the 6th floor of the Bong Sen apartment building, 4 victims were trapped and could not escape outside.
