Six members of a family were killed in a house fire in northern Mongolia’s Selenge province on Wednesday, according to the National Emergency Management Agency.
The fire broke out in a residential building in the morning, leaving two parents and their four children dead, the agency said.
The cause of the fire is under investigation.
The agency noted that incidents of house fires tend to rise during winter as households, particularly in rural areas, use heating fires to stay warm, reports UNB.
