A devastating fire ripped through the Na Ladprao pub in Bangkok, Thailand, killing at least 27 people and leaving dozens injured, including 22 in critical condition. According to Thai officials, musicians noticed smoke rising from a stage circuit breaker before a blackout and a reported explosion. The flames spread rapidly through the venue as decorative ceiling materials caught fire, while dense toxic smoke trapped patrons inside. Authorities say many victims were found near the restrooms, and most fatalities were caused by smoke inhalation rather than burns.
