State media report number of casualties currently unknown in blaze at telecommunications firm

:sadness:

Hopefully this sparks a major change in safety standards? I'm at least expecting more to change in China than changed here in the UK post-Grenfell.

    A fire engulfed a skyscraper in the central Chinese city of Changsha, with authorities saying that no casualties had yet been found.

    The blaze broke out in a 42-floor building housing an office of the state-owned telecommunications company China Telecom, according to the state broadcaster CCTV.

    Office floor, no casualties, good to hear.
