Thick black smoke billowed into the sky from a devastating fire that tore through a sprawling shopping mall.
The inferno, which erupted in the early hours of the morning (local time Poland), consumed over 80% of the structure, casting a dark shadow over the Polish capital.
Firefighters Battle Through the Night
According to Polish TVN24, the fire was reported around 4:00 AM, at which point emergency services sprang into action.
Approximately 180 firefighters were deployed to tackle the raging flames.
Their relentless efforts brought the fire under control by 7:45 AM, preventing further damage and potential loss of life.
A Close Call With No Casualties
Located in the northern part of Warsaw, the mall housed dozens of stores and was a popular local shopping destination.
Despite the severity of the fire, which caused part of the roof to collapse, there have been no reported injuries.
