Fire Incidents in Sri Lanka

Multiple fire events have been reported across different locations in Sri Lanka, including shops in Maharagama and a furniture store in Alawatugoda. Fire brigades were dispatched to control these incidents.

Four fire trucks to handle one shop fire? Classic Sri Lankan overkill - we send an entire army to battle a flame that could probably be put out with a garden hose and some serious eyebrow-raising determination. Next time, maybe they'll dispatch the entire national fire department to deal with a kitchen mishap.
