The Fire Services Department (FSD) in Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) announced in the early hours of Friday that firefighting operations had been completed at the Wang Fuk Court residential complex.

The death toll in a major fire that broke out Wednesday at a residential complex in Hong Kong had jumped to 128 and may rise further, the HKSAR government said on Friday.

The HKSAR government has opened nine temporary shelters, now accommodating more than 500 residents. Government departments, together with all sectors of society, have been stepping up efforts to assist affected residents.
