A massive fire has ravaged an industrial site in Newport, south Wales, leaving dramatic images of flames tearing through buildings. The blaze, which broke out in the middle of the night at Star Trading Estate, was contained by fire crews who have since been withdrawn from the scene.
Emergency services were called to the incident shortly after midnight, responding to reports of a rapidly spreading fire. Witnesses described the scene as chaotic, with thick smoke filling the air and flames visible from several miles away. Firefighters worked tirelessly to bring the situation under control, using heavy equipment to tackle the intense heat and smoke.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation, though initial reports suggest it may have started in a storage area. Local authorities have warned residents to remain alert and avoid the area until it is deemed safe. The extent of the damage remains unclear, but officials have expressed concern over the potential impact on nearby communities and infrastructure.
Fire crews have now completed their operations, and the site is being assessed for further action. (mirror.co.uk)
