Fire at Spain retirement home kills two women
A fire that broke out in a Madrid nursing home early Sunday killed two women and injured at least 10 other people, Spanish emergency services said.
The blaze broke out at around 7 am (0600 GMT) at the residence which was home to around 40 people, Isabel Casado, a supervisor with Madrid's emergency services, said in a video posted on X, formerly Twitter.
One of the injured, a woman, was in critical condition due to burns while the others needed treatment for smoke inhalation, she added.
Firefighter Jose Luis Castillo said the fire started in a room on the first floor and the second floor became "flooded with smoke". "We had to evacuate the residents to a secure place," he added.
