from OXY NEWS CHANNEL · host colonel
In this somber report from OXY NEWS CHANNEL, we detail the aftermath of the Gul Plaza fire in Karachi. As of January 20, 2026, the death toll has reached 28, with 81 people still officially unaccounted for as rescuers navigate a "dilapidated and dangerous" structure. We examine the causes of the rapid spread—including 179 unauthorized shops and blocked exits—and the $360 million economic blow to the city’s historic business district. Is this a failure of regulation or a tragic accident that could have been prevented?
