Tragic Wedding Hall Fire Claims Nearly 100 Lives in Iraq

A fire at a wedding venue in the predominantly Christian town of Hamdaniya in northern Iraq has killed at least 93 people and injured 100 more. The fire was reportedly sparked by fireworks inside the venue and spread quickly due to highly flammable building materials and decorations. The incident has prompted an investigation into the safety conditions and licensing of the venue, and the owner is currently in hiding. Iraq has experienced similar tragedies in the past due to poor building materials and insufficient safety standards.
