On November 26, 2025, the unthinkable happened in the heart of Hong Kong’s Tai Po district. A raging fire erupted at Wang Fuk Court, a towering residential complex that became a nightmare in real-time. As of today, 55 lives have been claimed, and over 270 people are still missing. Hours have stretched into days, yet this fire is refusing to be extinguished. So, what’s fueling this monstrous blaze? And why is it impossible to put out, even with Hong Kong’s world-class emergency services? <br /> <br />It all began in the late afternoon—2:51 p.m., to be exact—when the fire started in Wang Fuk Court. What started as a small ignition quickly turned into a blazing inferno, racing up seven 32-story towers, turning them into a towering pillar of flames. But this wasn’t your average blaze.
