Africa-Press – Mozambique. A fire broke out in the early hours of this morning in the area of the Matola Cargo Terminal (better known as ”Frigo”) in Matola’s Trevo neighbourhood.
The fire, which spread to about six warehouses owned by various companies, broke out at around 1:00 a.m..
Mayor of Matola, Calisto Cossa, said it was premature to speculate on the cause of the fire.
“The firefighting teams are working. There is a lot of merchandise, and they are trying to save what is not yet already destroyed, but we regret to say that much of it was burned,” the mayor said.
Residents say large explosions and flames accompanied the start of the fire, which has been the focus of SENSAP activities since 2:30 a.m..
