Dhaka, Nov 26 —Thousands of residents in the capital’s Korail slum are struggling to come to terms with the aftermath of Tuesday’s devastating fire that reduced their homes and livelihoods to ashes.
Hundreds of homes and shops were completely destroyed, forcing families to take refuge under the open sky—homeless, fearful, and uncertain about what the future holds. - UNB
