A fire has broken out at a Square Pharmaceuticals factory in Gazipur’s Kaliakoir Upazila.
The fire erupted inside the factory’s newly-introduced large-volume parenteral unit around 12:30 pm on Monday, Kaliakoir Fire Service’s warehouse inspector Saiful Islam said.
Four units of the Kaliakoir and Mirzapur fire service are working to douse the flames.
The authorities could not immediately confirm the cause of the fire, reports bdnews24.com.
“The unit that caught fire makes saline,” said Faridul Islam, an executive from the factory’s Human Resources Department.
“We cannot confirm the cause of the fire right now, but we can say that there were no casualties and everyone was able to make it out in time.”
